PongoDeMer -> Tactical Air Launch Decoys (9/25/2008 10:33:35 PM)

Are TALD available in Harpoon Commander's Edition? If so, what aircraft carry them and in which scenarios are they included?... Or do I have to go over to Harpoon 3 ANL to find them?

Many thanks,

Pongo De Mer[:)]

Yes, TALD are available in HCE scenarios.  The most common aircraft to carry them would be Intruders and Hornets.  I think that you can find them in most WestPac scenarios.  IIRC, Backyard I and II have planes with them.

TALDs can be found in the database included with the game. They are present in EC2003 and newer battlesets. Among other planes the Prowler, Intruder, and Hornets (ITALD) carry them so pretty much any scenario involving a US carrier will have TALD. The latter scenarios included in the WestPac battleset will make use of them (The Backyard, Operation Shield, etc.).

The HCDB database for HCE has TALD, ITALD and the latest, MALD. [:)]

This has got me thinking...

...is there now then a way to recreate the configuration Backfire / Bison raid from Red Storm Rising? The one where the Kelt missiles are reconfigured to look like Backfires and the US & French get a kicking. A fun stand alone scenario to write but also it would be just the sort of loadout for the Bounder Bombers I am creating in my What If db at the moment.

You'd have no trouble creating the Kelt missiles as decoys but they're still going to look like missiles when they're detected, not bombers.

Could you get them to initially show as large airborne contacts?

No, this is not possible cause all Missiles get a missile Icon when discoverd

This capability is now supposedly available from decoys used in Harpoon ANW. Unfortunately, a human player can use them, but the AI us unable to launch them at the player. [:(]
