Awesome! Thanks for posting. I have the pdfs saved but haven't read them in full. Anyone know of a similar study for Allied Force / Iraqi Freedom / Enduring Freedom /Odyssey Dawn?

<t> Hadn't thought of the P-3 squadron that the Marineflieger had, thanks! Added them in now flying out of Nordholz, as well as some other fun assets to cloud up the electronic picture even more. In real life I guess the surface fleet would have more of an active role. I'll see what adding it in ...

<t> Thanks for the feedback. <br/>

Lots of updates coming to this scenario that should make it quite a bit harder. Tweaked the AAW scene a little so it's now rather up in the air which side gets superiority. Some playthoughs resulted in Russian air superiority, some in Luftwaffe, most ...

<t> Can't seem to dig up a photo of Derby ER, but it uses the same body as the Derby. Only differences are in seeker, motor, and software. Having the same body, all aircraft certified for the Derby can immediately carry the Derby ER (physically that is, not sure about software). <br/>

<t> Hi guys,<br/>
<br/>
Been playing around some in the scenario editor with various combinations of a/c. I was just curious how the rest of you typically employed your high end assets, especially in a mixed 4th, 5th gen environment. <br/>
<br/>
One thing that seemed to work out well for me was ...

<r> Not sure if this is in the DB already under a different name or not included for lack of info, but Russian made AWACS killer. Not operational from what I can make of it and other sources, but potentially a future load out. <br/>

<t> Thanks for the perspectives, guys! Yeah, the multi-spectrum aspect of it is something I need to think about more.<br/>
<br/>
Definitely applicable in the USN with our reliance on air for ASuW. (South China Sea Clash scenario anyone?) <br/>
<br/>
Still, it seems plausible that from the ...

<t> So, what are your guy's strategies (working ones...) for ASuW against ships without the benefit of long range ASMs? <br/>
<br/>
Specifically, I'm looking at German Tornados attacking modern Russian ships with potent air defenses. <br/>
<br/>
The ASuW loads are:<br/>

Mk82 AIR at 200 ...

<r> It appears that the ASSTA 3 upgrade, starting in mid-2015 and ending in 2018, will give all Luftwaffe Tornados (IDS and ECR) the capability to drop LJDAMs. Whether or not they'll ever carry them operationally is another question...<br/>

<t> Thanks emsoy and Supreme! I definitely need to brush up on my German. I'd be curious to know what the ASuW tactics are for TaktLwG 51, especially against some of the long range air defense ships. Also, I wonder if the Italians got 140 new missiles or they're sitting in reserve somewhere...<br ...

<t> I posted over in the DB3000 thread as well regarding the Kormoran loadout. I couldn't find any info on a retirement date...but found stuff saying it was still in use...*sigh*. <br/>
<br/>
It would definitely make the scenario wayyyyy harder to have to go after the Russian battlegroup with LGBs ...

<r> Could be wrong here but I think that some of the later German Air Force Tornado IDS are missing a load out option. I'd definitely appreciate a Luftwaffe expert to chime in here though...<br/>
<br/>
When the Marineflieger was disbanded, the aircraft and associated naval strike mission was ...

<r> Updated a bunch! More NATO and Russian assets in play. German ASuW in 2015, minus the surface fleet. <br/>

Gotcha. That makes sense now!

Yeah, I'm a big fan of setting up missions at the start and then just letting the sim run. I use Command as a learning tool a lot so I like to see the AI versus AI behavior. Maybe something to look forward to in a later update!

<t> Hi guys, <br/>
<br/>
I don't know if I'm just being an idiot here (very likely) but I can't seem to get this to work. <br/>
<br/>
I've set up F-35s on a BARCAP with a prosecution zone further out. But, they aren't turning to engage even when aircraft are closing on them through the ...

<t> Hey guys,<br/>
<br/>
I've been stalking the forums for awhile now and decided to get more involved, finally! First off, freaking love this game. I'm a engineering student but do a lot of work related to this stuff - it's invaluable to me as a learning tool - and fun! <br/>
