Mgellis -> Command Database Wish List (9/30/2013 7:01:59 AM)
It occurs to me that it might be helpful to put various requests for new platforms, etc. in one thread. The Command databases are big enough that they'll keep most scenario builders busy and happy for quite a while, I think, but I'm sure there are a few things people would like to see added. Just to get thing started, here are a few things I'd like to see added when it is possible to do so (I apologize in advance if they are already in there and I somehow missed them)... Pacific-class patrol boat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific-class_patrol_boat Barracuda-class submarine (France) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Barracuda_class_submarine F125-class frigate (German) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F125-class_frigate Global Combat Ship/Type 26 Frigate (UK) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_26_frigate Allende-class frigate (Mexico) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allende_class_frigate <-- this one should be easy, as I believe it is simply a Knox with some of the equipment removed. Oaxaca-class patrol vessel (Mexico) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oaxaca_class_patrol_vessel Durango-class patrol vessel (Mexico) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durango_class_patrol_vessel Cessna 208 Caravan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_208_Caravan

I'm requesting an additional DB entry for the German RF-4E Phantom. In the current DB, the plane only has unarmed recon loadouts, but from 1978 to 1982, the planes were modified for an additional air to ground role. They would carry BL.755 as well as the other GP bombs used by the Luftwaffe in that timeframe.

Hi, Der Zeitgeist I will update the RF-4E in the Cold War DB do you have any other info on weapons carried and numbers, will google anyway many thanks for the feed back

Mgellis -> RE: Command Database Wish List (9/30/2013 3:29:41 PM)
Paul, Just want to say thanks for all your work on the CWDB...it looks great! :) I will definitely be putting it to use in the future. Thanks again.

Mgellis -> RE: Command Database Wish List (9/30/2013 5:00:48 PM)
As I understand it, you cannot mix and match platforms from different databases in the same scenario. Or can you? Assuming that you cannot, I would like to see the Cessna O-2 Skymaster (which is in the CWDB) added to the modern database, too--it looks like it is STILL in use in a few countries. Some information can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-2_Skymaster When it is possible to do so, please do the same with the OV-1 Mohawk, which I believe is in the CWDB already, but not the DB3000, although it served with US forces as late as the Gulf War. (A number of my requests will be along these lines, getting older platforms already in the CWDB into the DB3000, if it is appropriate to do so (i.e., if they are really active during those years)...I'm interested in writing scenarios about conflicts between smaller nations, which often have an interesting collection of older aircraft and ships in their inventory, or between such nations and a small task force from a more powerful nation like the UK or France...) Thanks!

And a few more suggestions... Shardul-class tank landing ship (India) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shardul_class_landing_ship <-- an updated version of the Magar (which is in the DB3000), but I guess it is different enough to need its own entry Makassar-class landing platform dock (Indonesia) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makassar_class_landing_platform_dock 520MK Black Tiger http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonnell_Douglas_MD_500_Defender <-- South Korean version of the MD500 armed with Tow missiles, etc. (some were just transports, but some were armed...should there be two entries?)

Thanks for your feedback guys! [8D] Please give me a few to catch up [:)] Would be great if you could highlight the ones that are needed for a scenario you're working on and need to be added asap zulu pronto pronto. The rest will be put into the queue (with medium/low priority) and added as time permits [:D] Thanks!

Weapons could be carried on up to three triple ejector racks, as can be seen on the last link above. Sidewinders were NOT carried, as a former munitions oficer of the Aufkl�rungsgeschwader 51 confirmed in the discussion thread linked above. The weapons carried were BL.755 and GP bombs made by Matra, similar to the US Mk80 series. I don't know if these are modeled in CMANO, if not, it would seem best to just use the same GP bombs the German F-4F can carry in the same period.

Please assume any I have posted up until now are "medium" priority--I plan to use them someday, but there's no rush. (I'm assuming "high" is "Please!

Mgellis -> RE: Command Database Wish List (10/4/2013 3:26:09 PM)
And a few more... (By the way, I know it will take a while to get all these added...I'm just posting them here as I think of them so that the database editors will have something they can refer to. Like I said, "Medium" means "Someday, please, but there's no rush." Thanks in advance.) Nomad 1000-T (Civilian) http://www.ussubmarines.com/submarines/nomad_1000_t.php3 http://www.ussubmarines.com/submarines/nomad_1000_t_technical.php3 Priority: Medium Yes, it's a private submarine! Just the thing for drug lords... Lifeboat (Civilian) There are dozens of models available...I took at a guess at the "average" one with this 6.5-m, 15-person lifeboat... http://www.norsafe.no/Products/Rescue/MOB-650/ http://www.norsafe.no/Products/Rescue/MOB-650/Documents/ Priority: Medium Inf Sec (Pirates) (Pirates) You could just use the Observation Post Sec, as it has the one machine guns and nothing else (maybe give them a couple of rocket launchers, too?), but change the name (for the sake of Victory conditions, etc.) Priority: Medium Inf Sec (Criminals)(Generic) You could just use the Observation Post Sec, as it has the one machine guns and nothing else (maybe give them a couple of rocket launchers, too?), but change the name (for the sake of Victory conditions, etc.) This can be used to model drug dealers, etc. Priority: Medium Civilians (Civilian) Basically, this is just a platoon with no weapons. They cannot fight. But they may need to be protected. Or rescued. Or they might just be close to something that has to be destroyed, but God help you if you hit them by accident. Building (Complex) (Generic) This is simply a generic 1,200-point structure, something the size of a palace, bigger than a single very large building, but not necessarily a palace. It could be an office complex, a shopping mall, a college, etc. Priority: Medium Structure (Water Treatment Plant) (Generic) Basically, just use the Industrial Plant, but change the name for the sake of victory conditions, etc. Priority: Medium Bridge (Railroad) (Generic) Unless the 60-ton single lane bridge is meant to be a railroad bridge? Sorry, it isn't clear if that's what you meant. Maybe just add it anyway so there is no confusion about it? Priority: Medium

Der Zeitgeist -> RE: Command Database Wish List (10/4/2013 6:17:55 PM)
I just noticed most US and NATO tactical fighters are missing their B-61 nuclear loadouts. One of the few that doesn't is the A-6, which has a B-61 loadout available. It's missing for, among others: Tornado, F-16, F-15E, F-111E/F and probably lots of others. All these planes are nuclear capable and had or even still have a nuclear strike role. British Tornados are also missing their WE.177 bombs. Edit: German Tornado's also don't have any retarded bombs in their loadouts. Right now, they only have the Mk83 LDGP bombs, not allowing them to do low altitude laydown attacks. They should also get the Mk83AIR ballute-retarded versions, which are used in reality, as this video shows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei5ClUzTB0g&feature=youtu.be&t=1m48s Edit 2: The top speed (full speed) of the B-52H is much too low, at just 350 knots. Looking at online sources, cruise speed should be around 420 knots, with full speed something like 500kts. http://www.af.mil/AboutUs/FactSheets/Display/tabid/224/Article/104465/b-52-stratofortress.aspx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_B-52_Stratofortress

Like the crew of a merchant ship. Range is probably only 0.1 miles. Damage (at least at the level at which Command handles it) is probably the same as the 7.62 machine gun, though. Priority: Medium Building (Drug Lab) (Generic) Use Building (Medium) Priority: Medium Terrorist Nuke (Terrorists) This can probably be based off the 5-kt nuke; any changes would be that it is the sort of thing that would get hidden inside a cargo container and used to blow up a port instead of being dropped from an airplane.

It's not a new platform, but I'd like to see the stealth variant of the MH-60 Black Hawk added. The type used in the Bin Laden raid.

Juramentado -> RE: Command Database Wish List (10/5/2013 2:23:37 AM)
MQ-8C - the Charlie version is based on the Bell Jetranger/Kiowa model, but with 12 hours mission duration instead of the Bravo's 5.5 hours. Also, per another link I posted here (Seapower Digital Magazine OCT 2013), the Charlie will have the same EO/IR sensor suite as the B plus a ZPY-4 Surface Search radar set (nice). Also, can we request the FireScouts all have the APKWS loadout now that it's set for IOC in 2014 please? Now that we're in 1.0 release, I will re-request FA/50 and TA/50 jets for South Korea please. [8D] Finally - can we add some Navantia (Spain) configs please: Navantia 1400 BVL - http://www.navantia.es/ckfinder/userfiles/files/BVL%281%29.pdf Navantia 1800 Corvette - http://www.navantia.es/ckfinder/userfiles/files/Avante%201800%20Corvette_r01%281%29.pdf Navantia 2200 Frigate - http://www.navantia.es/ckfinder/userfiles/files/Avante%202200%20Combatant%281%29.pdf Thanks!
