I doubt this is a bug since it has been around since the game launched, but the scroll "speed/distance" when scrolling (with the scroll wheel) the list of aircraft, ships, etc. in the database viewer is just too much. Like this person said in this thread from a year ago:

When using the 'Database viewer' and seemingly only while doing so the scroll bar increments by far too much. Instead of incrementing by 3 or so entries like in the 'Add new unit' window it increments by several dozen entries and in very odd increments at that. For example, if I scroll down from the top of the list by three increments it will always only require two increments to reach back to the top. Going further I found going 4 and 5 down only requires 3 up, 6 and 7 down requires 4 up, so on and so forth.
the database viewer scrolls dozens of entries with each increment used on the scroll wheel. This is especially apparent when scrolling through the weapons section as it is very long and can't be filtered by country. For example, the first weapon entry at the top of the displayed list is the "AK-176MA 76mm HE", and when I scroll down exactly one notch using my scroll wheel, it jumps to the "125kg GPB --Generic" weapon entry. In between those two entries is probably one hundred other entries for weapons.
Similar results occur when looking through the other DB sections, though it seems to be related to the number of entries that are being filtered to you. For example, when scrolling through the section for satellites (with no other filters), it only scrolls a few entries at a time instead of the 100+ entries when you are viewing the weapons section. It should be known that the satellite section of the DB is MUCH smaller than the weapons section, which seems to corroborate with my theory that the scroll speed is based on the number of database entries being filtered to the user.
Basically, what I would like to see instead, is the database only scrolling ~3-5 entries at a time REGARDLESS of the number of entries being presented to the user.
Other notes: I tried to change the scroll speed by specifically changing my mouse settings as well as the settings for mouse behavior in Windows, but that didn't seem to do anything at all. This leads me to believe it is C:MO it self that is "at fault" here. Especially given that the Database Viewer in C:MANO seemed to scroll only a few entries at a time.
If you need more info or clarification like screenshots or even video, I will try to provide it as best as possible. This is a fix that would alleviate my biggest complaint with C:MO and I would litteraly kiss the person that can fix it for me.
