    Status: offline     		Some notes for Peru (things I noticed when brainstorming ideas for a scenario featuring Peru against a drug cartel...)

    1. Possible error in database: the CH 81 Almirante Grau is only listed as being in service until 1999, but appears to still be in service. So it should either be listed as 1997- (instead of 1997-1999) or, if the gun upgrade was removed or modified, there should be a 2000- entry.

    2. Two of the submarines are Type 209/1100 instead of 209/1200, so that type should be added for Peru.

    See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peruvian_Navy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_209_submarine for details.

    3. Peru currently operates BAP Tacna (ARL-158) (the ex-HNLMS Amsterdam (A836), which I believe is already in the database, so adding it should not be difficult). Please add it.

    4. Peru currently operates two Terrebonne Parish-class landing ships (both former U.S. ships). Please add them. I think Greek and Turkish versions are already in the DB3K, but I am not sure if any differences exist between these and the ones sold to Peru.

    5. Peru will be getting two Makassar-class landing platform docks in 2015. Please add them. I believe the Indonesian versions are already in the database, but I am not sure if there are any differences between these and the Peruvian ones.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makassar-class_landing_platform_dock

    (The Philippines are getting Makassar-class ships, too.)

    Thanks for considering these. They will increase the scenario possibilities involving Peru.

From what I was reading a couple months ago the F-20 Tigershark was designed with the capability to fire the AIM-7 Sparrow, and did actually use it in testing conditions for mock air-to-air engagements. Possible might have been an error, and wanted to let you know after taking a look at her in the DB.

    This list was inspired by the experience of brainstorming a scenario and then as I tried to put in the units going "hmmm..that's not in the database, but I can use...no, wait, that isn't in the database, either...well, what abou--damn it!" :) Mind you, it's not a huge issue...I can just work on other scenarios until these get added, but I am hoping to see them in the database someday. Thanks for considering them!

    UH-3H <-- utility version of Sea King, apparently used by U.S., too, but I could not find it in the database; probably not too hard to add since so many other variants are already in the database

    We're working but the list is getting rather long guys so we're going to start prioritizing by what we think will actually get used and what has good links attached (not just one wikipedia link that obviously hasn't been even looked at as its one line of test)

    Thanks!

    I thought those were referring to Swift Boats. The MK III I'm referring to were built by Marinette Marine and Peterson Builders.

    Status: offline     		The Ulyanovsk CV is listed as having:

    1xAircraft Carrier Arresting Gear
    2xElevator
    1xHangar
    2xOpen Parking
    1xAircraft Carrier Ski Jump

    However, in all the images I can find, it appears there are also supposed to have 2xSteam Catapults and 3xElevator

    Alot of sources also seem to suggest the primary SAM is SA-N-6/12 as opposed to SA-N-9 although I'll admit not everything I found agrees.

    I know it was never completed but 1) some "what if" battles might be fun if the Cold War had gone into the 21st century and 2) China is apparently building this class so it might not be such a "what if" one day.

    Status: offline     		one of main reasons for #3464 MiG-31BM modification was integration of #915 - AA-13 Arrow [R-37M], also known as RVV-BD.
    Its missing from available loadouts (up to 4, replacing r-33S)

    http://www.janes.com/article/43640/mig-31-interception-near-north-america-suggests-russia-changing-offensive-air-ops

    It also get possibility for medium range RVV-AE (also up to 4, possible mixed loadout 2xRVV-AE, 2xRVV-BD againd cruise missiles?):

    http://www.testpilot.ru/russia/mikoyan/mig/31/bm/mig31bm.htm

    and finally, integration of lots of A2G ordnance, none of which was shown in field except of Kh-31P, which makes some sense (currently probably Kh-31PD/PM).

    Anybody have any idea what Mexican F-5 loadouts are? Specifically what version of Sidewinder would help a lot.

    Thanks!

    Mexico is seriously thinking about purchasing L-59s or L-159s.

    http://www.demotix.com/news/1317436/squadron-401-f5-northrop-mexican-air-force-celebrates-30-year#media-1317364

    Shows an armament spread with 250lb and 500lb bombs, 7 and 19 round Hydra pods. Also looks like some kind of 4-round rocket launcher for the centerline pylon (better view here). Two AIM-9s on the wingtips, but not sure the type.

    Translated from a 2004 post in a Mexican military forum:

    quote:

    As I said before a missile after a certain age if it is not given a coat of cat does not guarantee proper operation and for safety reasons is destroyed. The AIM 9B are the initial version of the Sidewinder and is limited to that you can only shoot towards the tail and half an enemy or high altitude, since in a white flying low is confused with the reflections of the earth. The AIM 9B were fine for the 60s of the 70 but now is obsolete material, I think they stopped making as 1972, so those old bought in 1982 and then ran. According to a source consulted, the sidewinders that used the FAM were part of Swedish origin Rb 24. According to other unnamed sources I consulted the FAM would buy Python III missiles. But many illusions are not made to buy missiles last generation, the Python IV worth more or less as 500,000 dollars per unit, the Python III as 300,000, the AIM 9L even sell us gringos, and also walks Magic as 500,000. Assuming you buy 4 aircraft to have a reserve accounts and would make it more expensive than what was paid by Swiss F-5. Other options besides Python III would get US permission to buy sidewinders G, J or P resale or the MAA-1 Pirahna series as they say has good performance and is less expensive.

    http://extrafam.mforos.com/1608735/5635349-armamento-de-los-f5-tiger-i-ii/ (in Spanish, but suggests the AIM-9P Sidewinder is the one used by the Mexican air force).

    http://mexaeroespacial.blogspot.com/2014/03/f-5ef-escuadron-aereo-401-de-la-fuerza.html <-- in Spanish, but says the AIM-9P is used by the Mexican F-5s (thank you, Google translator)

    http://www.marines.mil/Portals/59/Publications/Mexico%20Study_4.pdf <-- does not talk about the F-5s too much but is a general study that might prove useful

    http://www.ausairpower.net/TE-Sidewinder-94.html <-- history of the sidewinder; does not list which countries use which versions, but lots of interesting and perhaps useful data

    http://yanlowang.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/monogram-148-f-5e-tiger-ii-mexican-air-force-part-2/ <-- not sure how reliable this is, but this also claims the AIM-9P is the missile on the Mexican F-5

    I hope this helps.

    Just as a general reference...

    http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgMakeModel.nsf/Frameset?OpenPage

    This provides links to a large number of .pdf fact sheets (they're about 5-10 pages each) kept by the Federal Aviation Administration. You have to click about three different links to get to the .pdfs, but they are there. Lots of technical data, although I don't know if it is what the developers specifically need when adding new aircraft to the database (the ones I looked at did include the size of the fuel tank, which may be helpful in some cases).

    I hope this helps.

    Why not simply copy + paste the links?

    I think I know what the problem is. You are listed as only have four posts so far. I can't remember, but I think you have to get to something like 10 or 20 posts (at which point you are promoted to "trooper" and get one gold star) to be allowed to post links, attachments, etc. It is probably a tool employed to defeat potential spammers.
