<summary>Add EC-130V Hercules AEW</summary>
<detail>
1 aircraft converted in 1991 for USCG AEW for Counter-Narcotics use with AN/APS-125 system from E-2C similar to P-3B AEW conversions. Later transferred to USAF as a range control aircraft and upgraded to an AN/ASP-145 and designated NC-130H.

<summary>DB3000 Facility_2539 YLC-29 ELS is identified as an Emitter Locator System (ELS). In fact, it is likely a bi-static or multi-static detection system similar to the US Silent Sentry system, passively relying on reflected commercial TV and radio signals to detect targets. B </summary>
<detail> OVERVIEW: The YLC-29 is a mobile, bistatic passive detection system designed to detect radiofrequency emitting targets.

DETAILS: This detection system is a bi-or-multi-static passive detection system that uses at least one, and ideally three or more commercial radio or TV signals reflected from a moving airborne target to passively detect it. Using one transmitter, it likely can provide a two-dimensional track, but not altitude, resolution and accuracy improve with more civilian transmitters. It reportedly can also detect stealth aircraft and other low signature targets.

Because it is not emitting, it is less susceptible to ECM.

The YLC-29 likely supplements the YLC-8B, SLC-7 and SLC-12 radars to provide an integrated stealth aircraft detection capability.

Specifications:

Frequency: 85-110 MHz
Power output: N/A
PRF: N/A Hz
Range Accuracy: <800 m (range); ?? m (altitude)
1.5 degrees azimuth
Set up time: 20 min

Detection Range: 90-107 nm (max) </detail>

I looked, while something does look different in the entries compared to other FREMMS (possible typo in performance specs for the engine where everything is *10, as if a decimal got lost on all entries for the unit - maybe it was purposeful too who knows) it also applies to the fuel tank (200k vs 20k) it's assigned though so it doesn't seem to actually be an issue and ultimate the burn rates are the same as say a FREMM #2794.

Placing a ffg-62 #3229 using database db3k 488 in a fresh scene using build 1147.25, setting it to cruise speed and letting it get up to 18knots nets me an estimated range of ~6000nmi which checks out to generally published public data. Flank-28 nets me ~2500nmi, full-25 ~4400nmi, and creep-5 about ~1900nmi.

Nothing I tried resulted in 173nmi, though I could waste a ton of fuel by setting cruise and capping the knots below cruise speed (ie prevent cav, or manually set to say 10knots). Is there a specific unit other than #3229 (which is the only U.S. FREMM I found) that you were referring too?

Hi Belthorian

I reported this sometime last year, and it was fixed a while back. I think you are using an old DB.
Try upgrading to DB488

F-15 carry only one JASSM, theoretically but can 5. There is no problem for carry 3 for short range strike (still have CFT tanks). Others strike planes have 3 or more vide Su-30, Su-35, Su-34 even old Buccaneer.

Currently the JAS-39C has a weapon availability of the AIM-120C5 P3I.2 and AIM-9P-4 in the database
Please add 25x RBS.15F, and (40x) IRIS-T. (also the combination of AMRAAM and IRST (see evidence #1).
Please add GBU-12 LGB and Litening targeting pod.

The RTAF has been operating the multi-role fighter since February 2011 with a fleet of seven A/C (in Database 4+6) single-seat JAS-39Cs and four two-seat JAS-39Ds (in Database 2x).
Thailand initially purchased 12 Gripens from Sweden, but one of them was lost in a plane crash in 2017.

The software of the aircraft are modified to M20.
MS20 brings with it a host of new features, not least of which is the ability to operate with the MBDA Meteor long-range air-to-air missile, Another important weapons enhancement is the ability to carry the GBU-39 small diameter bomb, giving the aircraft a low-collateral damage precision attack capability. Other MS20 features include improved Link 16 datalink, a second datalink for digital close air support, night reconnaissance capability, improved CBRN characteristics, The upgrade greatly enhances Gripen�s ability to engage ground targets by incorporating unguided and laser-guided bombs into the aircraft payload and the air-to-air capability is enhanced by introduction of new radar modes and logistics/maintenance improvements.

Thailand will thus become the third nation to boast Gripen at the MS20 standard after Sweden and the Czech Republic.

<summary>Please look at the fuel burn rate for the US Navy FFG 62 Agility -- United States (Navy), 2026, FREMM-Based FFG(X)</summary>
<detail>
The new US FF(X) has a burn rate issue. The Italian FREMM Frigate starts with the same 20000 fuel units but at 18 knots cruise speed she has enough fuel for 1 week and 6 days. The United States Navy variant has the same starting fuel load but will burn her fuel in 8 hours and 8 minutes.

<type>Update</type>
<summary>Please add/correct Brazilian A-29B (#1839) and A-29A (#1840) loadouts </summary>
<detail>
The main issues are the incorrect number of 70mm rockets carried, missing rocket equipped loadout options and the capability to drop the Lizard LGB being missing.

The Brazilian Super Tucanos can be equipped with 7 and/or 19 70mm rocket capacity rocket pods, not 7 and/or 14 as depicted in the DB.
That means that Loadouts such as the HYDRA 70 Hi-Lo-Hi and HYDRA 70 Lo-Lo-Lo should be updated to carry 2x19 = 38 70mm rockets instead of 28.

Also, both versions should have a Lizard LGB Loadout consisting of 2x Lizard LGB (Mk 82) + 330L Drop Tank. The monoplace A-29A can carry/drop the LGBs but not target them.

Also, some relevant loadouts are missing for both versions:

HYDRA 70mm, Hi-Lo-Hi - 76x HYDRA 70 (4x 19RKT pod), 1x330L Drop Tank (No tank version also possible)
HYDRA 70mm, Lo-Lo-Lo - 76x HYDRA 70 (4x 19RKT pod), 1x330L Drop Tank (No tank version also possible)

HYDRA 70mm, Hi-Lo-Hi - 36x HYDRA 70 (4x 7RKT pod), 1x330L Drop Tank (No tank version also possible)
HYDRA 70mm, Lo-Lo-Lo - 36x HYDRA 70 (4x 7RKT pod), 1x330L Drop Tank (No tank version also possible)

Mk82 LDGP Hi-Lo-Hi - 5xMk82 LDGP
Mk82 LDGP Lo-Lo-Lo - 5xMk82 LDGP

Mixed Bomb/Rocket Loadouts

2xMk82 + 14xHYDRA 70 (2x 7RKT Pods) + 330L Drop Tank
14xHYDRA 70 (2x 7RKT Pods) + 1xMk82 + 2x330L Drop Tank

2xMk81 + 14xHYDRA 70 (2x 7RKT Pods) + 330L Drop Tank
14xHYDRA 70 (2x 7RKT Pods) + 1xMk81 + 2x330L Drop Tank

The MPAC is a Taiwanese-built patrol/assualt craft operated by the Philippine Navy. As of 2018, they had 9 boats operational, and 3 on the way. Apparently, as many as 42 total are planned.

<type>Update</type>
<summary>Please make all Finnish Bae Hawks able to carry weapons</summary>
<detail>
Currently only the Hawk 51 -1981 and 1987 setups (#3193 and #3194) are armed, with quite obsolete weapons (AA-2a Atoll, weapon #1049 and RB-24J (AIM-9P-2), weapon #1760 respectively) that have only have got rear aspect IR targeting and have not been used by the Finnish Air Force for decades. No model available after 1997 seems to be armed.

However, as late as yesterday the Finnish Air Force published a video of a BAe Hawk 66 (#3191) launching a AIM-9M Sidewinder during an air defence exercise. It is very easy to see that it is a Mk 66 as it still has got the originally Swiss red and white paint scheme. The AIM-9M was purchased along with the Hornet fleet in the 90's, but the Hornets now primarily use the AIM-9X purchased as part of the first MLU in the 2000's.

The armament for each aircraft in combat mode is one 30 mm Aden gun (weapon #1080) in a gun pod under the fuselage and up to two AIM-9M Sidewinders. Together with this they can also carry two drop tanks if needed.

The Finnish Hawks also have received quite a lot of improvements to the electronics and avionics compared to standard Hawks, with a new completely rebuilt cockpit. All instruments have been upgraded to multi-function LCD- and HUD displays. There is still no integrated radar, but the planes are able to receive and transmit positions and situational awareness through a secure radio data network called Hawk Link. This is mostly used for fighter training, but can also be used for operational situational awareness through shared links with Hornets or ground based radars and combat controllers.

All remaining 32 Hawks (9x Mk 51, 7x Mk 51A, 16x Mk 66) have been updated in this way, the last ones in 2018.

SBIRS is completely ineffective. It fails to detect any ballistic missile launches. Could the cause be the sensor range is set to 2,000nm? Since it's in geostationary orbit, shouldn't it be set to something like 20,000nm?

Also, there are now 5 SBIRS in orbit. We are missing 3.

AGM-158B-2 and AGM-158D seems to be different missiles:

It may be that the B-2 version has extreme range (over 1000 nm) and the D version has the same range and those additional datalinks for retargeting, in-flight updates etc.
