<summary>
Extend RIM-174A SM-6 Block IA range to at least 230 nm. Revise SM-6 Dual I and expected SM-6 Block IB range in this light. Move SM-6 Block IB IOC to 2022 and Army MRC SM-6 Block IB to 2023. Revise list of platforms capable of firing SM-6 Block IB.
</summary>
<detail>
The Flight IIA Burke USS John Finn (DDG-113) (#2866) hit a barge target "250+ miles" away with "an SM-6" at UxS IBP 21 using CEC. This is a complex test that needs a mature system. SM-6 Block IB has not yet reached IOC so this is likely an SM-6 Block IA. That implies that SM-6 Block IA has a 230 nm+ range. That in turn implies Dual I has a similar range and that Block IB will have a much longer range.

The .mil budgeting links provide further indications that it was an SM-6 Block IA. As of FY21 the USN had not yet procured any SM-6 Block IB and Block IB spending is slated to begin in FY2022. There's interesting info on 22-26 month lead times for boosters buried in the FY21 Navy Justification Book on page 144. An expected 2022 Navy fielding date comports with Army plans for MRC in 2023.

As for the platforms, only DDG 53 John Paul Jones [Arleigh Burke Flight I] can currently fire SM-6 Block IB. No other Burkes can fire it, so the issue might be with the version of the Mk41 VLS mount on each Burke platform.

They have probably used a SM-6 Block IA missile, the Block IB variant is a hypersonic missile under development and will have longer range.

You're right. I took the DB values for the SM-6 Block IA seriously but they seem to be much too small.

<type>Update</type>
<summary>Add underwater launched AIM-9X and other payloads (decoys, UAVs) for US Navy SSGN Ohio</summary>

<detail>

This is a hypothetical capability but has been tested before. In theory it makes sense for an SSGN since if it has to operate close to shore to insert SOF equipment, it needs some self-protection against small air and surface targets. The missiles would be encapsulated in the VLS instead of some cruise missiles.

The AIM-9X is a LOAL missile so launched from a capsule it could find a target by itself or with the help of a third party asset like a UAV (Blackwing type already in service).

quote:

The US Navy also played with a similar concept that has blurred into the developmental shadows in recent years. During the late 2000s, the US Navy, Raytheon and Northrop Grumman worked to migrate the highly flexible AIM-9X short-range air-to-air missile to the undersea world under the Littoral Warfare Weapon program. The AIM-9X would be vertically launched in a canister from a submarine, then the missile would climb into the sky when the canister broke the surface, locking onto its target after launch.

Tests during the mid 2000s had the AIM-9X fired from a vertical launcher as a proof of concept demonstration. A few years later, an AIM-9X was launched from an actual submarine as part of a series of integration tests. Since then the program seems to have disappeared from public view, but it�s likely development has continued on in the classified world�especially considering that submarine-launched unmanned aircraft have been an operational reality within America�s nuclear submarine fleet for some time.

Also, Serbian MIG29s are being modernized to SM standard with N-019M1 Topaz radar(which is a further upgrade of the N-019MP radar on the MiG-29SMP), able to detect a fighter sized target at 120km. Additional air to air Missiles being intehgrated and already purchased are RVV-SD, R-27ET and R-27ER1. There is additional information showing a DECM system may be purchased from Belarus which will more than likely be the Talisman System that is also on Syrian MiG29s. Guided bombs and missiles from newer fulcrum models are also being integrated.

Hi,

Here are some possible changes to the database I recommend:

1. C-130 and C-17 should be able to carry HIMARS.
2. C-130 and C-17 should be able to conduct air-dropping.
3. F-16V should be able to carry AGM-158B/C.

Thank you.

Project 22800 Karakurt Russian Navy Small Missile Ship
Just for emphasis this is quite an important class numbers wise and there would ideally be two DB entries as the first two vessels differ from the rest in having two AK-630M astern not the Pantsir-M combined SAM/30mm CIWS which will arm the bulk of the fleet.

<type>Add</type>
<summary>Project 22800 Karakurt Corvette Mytishchi (Mod 1) -Russian Navy 2018 and Project 22800 Karakurt Corvette Oditsovo/Shvkal (Mod 2) - Russian Navy 2021 (?)</summary>
<detail>First two vessels Mytishchi (ex Uragan) and Sovetsk (ex Taifun) have 2 x 30mm AK-630M CIWS port and starboard astern covering large arcs each side but not forward due to the bridge.
The remainder from the Oditsovo* onward will have the Pantsir-M mount using an 8 pack of SAM's* and 2 x 30mm AO-18KD six-barrel guns in single mount astern. Kozelsk/Shvkal/Oditsovo was launched in 2019 and it's commissioning date is TBC.

*Helpfully it appears the names keep being changed as well as Odintsovo is listed as being the ex-Shvkal (Storm/Squall) as is the Kozelsk but in any event the 3rd vessel onward has Pantsir-M and the video still shows 584 to be named the Shvkal.

*Details of the type of SAM vary from the 20km weapon used in the land based Pantsir to the laser guided 10km Sosna. The former would seem more credible as an effector.
The Russian ships info page has the best presentation of the relevant information.
They are also to be equipped with Orlan-10 UAV's, in what appears to be a catapult launched and water landing recovery system</detail>

Thanks for considering both. K
As per the attached image from a You tube screen shot this is Shvkal 584 before being renamed.

<summary>Russian Yasen-M submarine</summary>
<detail>
The first improved project-885M Yasen-M Class submarine, K-561 Kazan, was launched at the Sevmash yard on 31st March 2017. It is approximately 10-12 meters shorter than the first boat. The reduction in length is distributed across most sections with single frames removed from several places. The most significant external change is the elimination of the large vertical flank array immediately behind the bow sonar.

Izvestia reports on how the Yasen-M SSGN will differ from the original Yasen, the Severodvinsk, including going from 139 to 130 meters in length, a crew of 90 to 64, from 10 torpedo tubes to 8, a more pointed bow, and greater munitions countermeasures.

The improved Yasen M-class SSN is reportedly quieter than the lead Yasen-class boat. It is built with low magnetic steel to reduce its magnetic signature.

The Kazan is fitted with eight vertical СМ-346 complex (3Р-14В) silos for submarine-launched cruise missiles as well as 8 torpedo tubes for firing (�) [missiles and torpedoes]. The Severodvinsk can carry up to 40 Kalibr cruise missiles while the second, Kazan, can carry 32.

<summary>Update Virginia Flight III-V (SSN-784 onwards) sonars </summary>
<detail>In the newest U.S. Navy Virginia-class submarines, the bow sonar is called LAB (Large Aperture Bow) and is horse-shoe-shaped. The LAB sonar replaces earlier sonar spheres, which were located on the front bow dome and surrounded by air. To improve the Acoustic Intercept sonar�s listening ability, the bow dome is now filled with water and is made with special composite materials to improve the transfer of acoustic signals.

The LAB sonar, which is both more precise and longer range than its predecessor, also advances the curve in that it introduces both a passive and �active� sonar system.

The LAB Array has 2 primary components: the passive array, which will provide improved performance, and a medium-frequency active array. It utilizes transducers from the SSN-21 Seawolf Class that are that are designed to last the life of the hull.

<summary>#5072 - Ka-52M Hokum B (Russia [1992-] - 2022) Appears to have double entry for V006 Rezets Radar</summary>
<detail>#5072 - Ka-52M Hokum B (Russia [1992-] - 2022) Has two entries for V006 Rezets Radar one in L band and one in I/J band, so is this a limitation of the simulation due to multiple bands or an error, as in reality it only has one radar?

Plus the range is too short at only 20nm circa 37km, Rezets real capability was given as 45km (24nm) for a "group of tanks" and 150km (80nm) for a destroyer size warship.

From Janes "The new V006 Rezets (Cutter) active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar is being developed by the St Petersburg-based Zaslon company for the modernised helicopter. The test version of the radar installed in a Ka-52K helicopter was shown at the MAKS aerospace show held in Zhukovskiy close to Moscow on 27 August�1 September.

The Rezets radar for the Ka-52 has a fixed 900�300 mm AESA antenna with 640 transceiver modules. It can detect a group of tanks from 45 km, a railway bridge from 100 km, and a destroyer-class warship from 150 km, according to the manufacturer. In the air-to-air mode, it can detect a fighter aircraft with a radar cross section of 3 sq m from up to 50 km head-on and a hovering helicopter from 20 km. The Rezets radar weighs 130 kg, 10 kg less than the current Ka-52�s FH01 produced by Phazotron-NIIR of Moscow, and is air-cooled, with an air scoop for cooling seen on the helicopter�s nose fairing.</detail>

<summary>The B-2 bomber has not any FLIR sensors.</summary>

<detail>

In all entries of the B-2 bomber in the database it has a GENERIC FLIR sensor which does not exist in the aircraft.

That is why the B-2 uses GPS-guided bombs and not laser-guided bombs with the exception of the dual GPS/Laser-guided GBU-28.

quote:

One of the lead airplanes would use its synthetic aperture radar to acquire an image of the target area; the image then is correlated with reconnaissance imagery prepared beforehand. Aim points are selected and matched with previously determined GPS coordinates. With this �three-dimensional� and nonoptical targeting information, the B-2 can score hits comparable to those achieved with laser-guided weapons, and it is not hampered by bad weather over the target, as would be the case if they were using laser-guided weapons.

<summary>Aircraft TU-144 SST length contains typo of 585 meters, request update to 59.5</summary>
<detail>Aircraft dbid 4984 "TU-144 SST", has a length of 585 meters long. I believe this is a simple typo that was meant to be 58.5, for the prototype model. While it may not be a huge issue, I imagine somewhere, where this is used in calculations (maybe fore hanger space area calculation, or perhaps optical sensor detection) this could cause issues and should be updated to reflect the proper number be it 59.5 or 65.7 for the non prototype model. Requester takes no position on which variant to use, but the other dimensions match the prototype model.

quote:

Update DataAircraft set Length = 59.5 where ID = 4984

</detail>
<evidence> Beyond the obvious.. that it can't be 585.0 the follow suggests it's in the 59-65.70 range, the later being production model.

<summary>Please add Sweden to the usergroup of the Patriot PAC-3 MSE</summary>
<detail>Lockheed Martin last month delivered some portion of Sweden's order for Patriot Advanced Capability-3 Missile Enhancement Segment interceptors, the company said today, claiming the Nordic nation is now the 10th foreign customer armed with the most advanced variant of the U.S.-made air- and missile-defense guided missile.

The company declined to provide any further details -- including how many interceptors it delivered and even who the other nations are, despite a press release touting 11 nations now equipped with PAC-3 MSEs.

The PAC-3 MSE delivery is part of a larger Patriot modernization initiative by Stockholm. In February 2018 the Pentagon revealed the deal was made up of a $3.2 billion effort that included new antenna radar sets, launching stations as well as a total of 300 interceptors: 200 PAC-3 MSEs and 100 Guidance Enhanced Missile-TBM (GEM-T) interceptor variants, built by Raytheon. </detail>

<summary>Please Update the JASSM loadout on the F-15E and probably F-15EX</summary>
<detail>The 85th Test and Evaluation Squadron completed a munitions proof-of-concept called Project Strike Rodeo, May 11, 2021, that validated loading five AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles (JASSM) on an F-15E Strike Eagle. This lays the foundation for follow-on flight testing that would more than double the F-15E�s current JASSM-carrying capacity.

According to Lt. Col. Mike Benitez, 53rd Wing director of staff, the grass-roots initiative started in January 2021 during a WEPTAC working group. A team of expert tacticians were working through a specific scenario that relied on the ability to escort a bomber loaded with stand-off munitions to a release point in a highly-contested environment.

Some warfighters hypothesized that using a formation of fighters instead of a single bomber to employ the JASSM salvo could not only reduce the size and complexity of the strike package required to execute the mission, it would also distribute mission risk across the force. Unfortunately, the maximum number of JASSMs any fighter can currently carry is two, meaning though the idea is feasible it wasn�t viable based on the number of fighters required, unless� a fighter could carry more JASSMs.

With this idea in mind, the F-15E Strike Eagle was the platform considered for taking on the task of carrying more JASSMs, and Project Strike Rodeo was born. Unfortunately, the munitions would not fit on the conformal fuel tank weapons stations of the F-15E, as JASSM was designed to be loaded directly from the base of their shipping containers, which is too large to fit under the F-15E without hitting the main landing gear.

I am going to assume you follow U.K. defence journal and their crusade against those who claim the carriers don�t have planes!

Also definitely should have put hypothetical and cancelled in the case of the F35C due to the tories flip flopping from B to C a few times.
