My name's not Gregg... I think you have the wrong guy...

Request to add AIM-120 to inventory of Israeli AF F-15A/B/C/D planes.

as per explanation in scenario section:

http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3513452

One source:

http://books.google.com.mt/books?id=wBRM5RRWZ3oC&pg=PA149&lpg=PA149&dq=Baz+Meshopar&source=bl&ots=OvE5mIa2Z6&sig=U7_GTNT5di4cLNcWCYA51CPe_d4&hl=en&sa=X&ei=3hfIUuCWM8fMhAeEyIHICQ&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Baz%20Meshopar&f=false

Says all F-15 B and D in IAF were upgraded with e.g. Elbit DASH and AIM-120 AMRAAM capability by the time of printing the book (2007) and rest (F-15A and C models) by late 2007.

Another source, by Shlomo Aloni (he should know, being sort of expert about IAF planes, with pictures and moreinformation):

Russian Heel -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/4/2014 2:07:48 PM)

Entries #2120 Yak-28PP Brewer E and #2166 Yak-28R Brewer D have the aircraft listed as carrier capable. This should not be.

Edit: Also Entry #2294 Yak-28PP Brewer E for Russia also has this listing.




SuaveWatermelon -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/4/2014 3:20:54 PM)

Also noticed something else about the F-16s. Blocks 40 through 52 should be capable of mounting the AGM-154 JSOW (at least the entries spanning from 1998 to 2008 should be able to use them because the US Air force stopped receiving JSOWs in 2005 but still have some in inventory (I think)(correct me if I am wrong).




mikmykWS -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/4/2014 3:46:09 PM)

It would be great if you could post links or pictures for your adds. Sipri is a great source to see what was actually bought as well.

Just looking at your prior request. Some of these things never happened.

We don't mind adding things but when we have to delete things due to bad info it impact the scenarios players have made with them. So this is why we're extra careful about adding things.

Thanks!

Mike

According to Royal Navy website, HMS Astute submarine can use HARPOON. DB3000 only shows it using the UGM-109 TLAM and Spearfish ::
http://www.armedforces.co.uk/navy/listings/l0037.html

Also, the Valiant class and the Churchill class appears to have had HARPOON capability. See:

Broncepulido -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/4/2014 6:03:07 PM)

UGM-84B Subharpoon were at disposition from 1981 for all the UK SSN and retired in 2008 (except clearly Dreadnought), but not employed in the South Atlantic War (reserved for a hypothetical confrontation with WarPac?).

CV60 -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/4/2014 9:32:04 PM)

Suave-One way around the link issue is simply copy the address but drop the "http://www." part of it to your post. The software won't recognize it as being a webaddress, but the developers can still cut and past the link, adding the "www." portion.

Also just found something else.

According to the DB the F-35C has the AGM-158 JASSM as an option for a weapon.

Only the Navy never actually acquired any JASSMs

On japanese F-4 Phantoms again:

Sorry I have to say this, but they are ALL wrong. [:-]

DB3000 build 403:
#1194 - F-4EJ Phantom II -- Japan (Air Force), 1979-0, 140x
-needs to be named: #1194 - F-4EJ Phantom II -- Japan (Air Force), 1973-0, 140x
The first Phantom squadron was established 1973 (301st squadron)
-The F-4EJ didnt have IFR capabilities, those were re-installed with the Kai-upgrade program in the 80s

#1996 - F-4EJ Phantom II Kai -- Japan (Air Force), 1991-0, 125x
-needs IFR (boom)
-needs AIM-9L/P capability
-needs AIM-7E capability

#136 - F-4EJ Phantom II Kai -- Japan (Air Force), 1998-2014, 96x
-needs IFR (boom)
-needs AIM-9L/P capability
-needs AIM-7E capability

#1440 - RF-4EJ Phantom II -- Japan (Air Force), 1973-0, 14x
-needs to be named: #1440 - RF-4EJ Phantom II -- Japan (Air Force), 1979-0, 14x
-needs IFR (boom)
-replace AN/APQ-99 with AN/APQ-172

#805 - RF-4J Phantom II Kai-- Japan (Air Force), 1992-0
-needs to be named: #805 - RF-4EJ Phantom II Kai -- Japan (Air Force), 1992-0, 17x
-needs IFR (boom)
-add M61A1 Vulcan
-The RF-4EJ Kai is an upgraded F-4EJ as this replace all stats with those of #1996 (NO INTERNAL RECON SYSTEMS!!!)
The RF-4EJ Kais carry three different recon pods, but as I dont know how recon works in game mechanics you need to figure out how to implement them:
quote:

Seventeen F-4EJs were also converted to RF-4EJ configuration, which, while mounting no internal cameras, carried podded reconnaissance equipment. Among the systems installed were TACER (electronic reconnaissance pod with datalink), TAC (pod with KS-135A and KS-95B cameras), D-500UR IR detection system, and the LOROP pod (with a KS-146B camera).

bsq -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/7/2014 4:24:24 PM)

Some more missile errors...

SA-6 Min alt is incorrect

Should be 60ft (or 20 metres if you like) for the M3 variant - as in all those covered by the timeframe of this database version.

SA-8B and SA-N-4B are the same missile. Yet the naval variant has a min alt of 30 feet and the landbased variant has a min alt of 60 feet?? Both should be 30 feet, so both should have a capabilty against cruise missiles (albeit not a very good one)

The RN Harpoon missiles were withdrawn 2007-2008 [8D]

G'day :D

can we have the BAE Stonefish Mk III mine? The RAN Collins Class subs are able to carry 44 in place of their (22) torpedoes.

much appreciated guys!




xavierv -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/10/2014 5:09:31 PM)

Could you please add these very recent classes (some of them already in service)

Khareef class OPV - Oman
Al-Ofouq-class OPV - Oman
Baynunah class Corvette - UAE
Abu Dhabi class Corvette - UAE
Falaj 2 class Stealth Patrol Vessel - UAE
Kalaat Beni-Abbes LPD - Algeria

SIGMA 10514 PKR Frigate - Indonesia
22DDH Izumo class - Japan

I have links for those, but i can't post them yet




ventris -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/10/2014 11:17:02 PM)

All F-14 Tomcats:
Do you have sources for the loadouts with 8x MK-82? I know there were tests done with up to 14 MK-82, but to my knowledge four bombs were the maximum the Tomcat ever used in service.




gsmith63 -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (1/11/2014 9:42:22 PM)

Would it be possible to add a “magazine” to the DF-21D ASBM SSM battery? Assumed two reloads for each launcher = eight reloads. Not sure how long reloading would take though.

This is my third post. I should have started the first by saying that this game is absolutely outstanding, and the support from the CMANO team is probably the best I’ve ever seen. BZ! Now on to business: I’ve noticed that there are a number of inaccuracies with later units of the US Ticonderoga-class cruisers. For all the sub-variants from CG 52 (USS Bunker Hill) through CG 70 (USS Lake Erie), DB3000 has incorrect figures from 2010 onwards. Starting in 2009 all surviving units of the Tico class are being modernized to a common baseline under the Cruiser Modernization Program. The basic changes are as follows:
*SPY-1B(V) vice SPY-1A or -1B.
*SPS-49 removed.
*SPQ-9A replaced with SPQ-9B.
*SQS-53A or -53B replaced with SQS-53C.
*SQR-19 replaced with SQR-20 Multi-Function Towed Array (Besides being a regular towed array sonar, the SQR-20 significantly increases range of the active SQS-53C by operating as a bi-static receiver through the SQQ-89A(V)15 system).
*SLQ-32(V)3 replaced with SLQ-32A(V)3.
*61-cell Mk 41 VLS launchers replaced with 64-cell launchers (removal of reloading cells).
*Added ability to carry ESSM, SM-3, and (when available) SM-6.
*Mk 45 Mod 1/2 guns replaced with Mk 45 Mod 4 5-in 62 caliber guns and new GFCS.
*CIWS brought up to Mk 15 Block 1B standard.
*Mk38 Bushmaster 25mm cannons replaced with much improved Mk38 Mod 2.
*4x Mk 53 Nulka decoy launchers added if not already carrying them.
*Cooperative Engagement Capability added.

Modifications to CG 52-58 have already been completed. All US CGs not scheduled for decommissioning are being similarly modified at a rate of ~2-3 per year. I guess I'm not allowed to post links yet or I would include some with additional details and references. Rag or Mike you can contact me via e-mail if you need more info.


OK - I think I can post links now. Here are some detailing what was stated above:

Another request (I think I mentioned this in another thread but I thought I should re-post it here)...

Civilians – Generic
This is simply a platoon-sized group of unarmed people. It can move, it can be damaged or destroyed, but it only has eyeballs as sensors and it has no weapons (unless it is armed using the scenario editor). Basically, this lets the scenario designer add innocent bystanders, refugees, unwilling human shields, hostages, non-violent protesters, etc.

Hi All

Need some help digging up info to complete some of your requests. Combat Fleets 2013 and googling isn't coming up with much:

Indonesian missile boat KRI Clurit (KRC-40 Class)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRI_Clurit

Anybody know the sensors these vessels carry?

Australia- Stonefish Mk. III fine. Lots of Mk.II out there but not so much on Mk.III any details would help.

Myanmar- Aung Zeya Frigates- Need sensor info. Vast differences between internet sources and paper sources on what SSM's are carried.

Thanks!

Mike

Is it possible to add DHC-6 Twin Otter, no need for several entries just one sivilian as they are pretty similar all of them but it needs an "Air Ambulance" and "Paratroopers" loudouts.

Thanks, Bjørn

I noticed that Italian Horizon class ship "Andrea Doria" should have TESEO Mk-2/A anti ship missiles but IG they don't have any. You put the exocet Anti ship missile on the french versions of the horizon so maybe you forgot about it ?
Because without it, it doesn't have any A-ship capability... Thanks in advance
