So I noted while placing the AN/TPS-77 radar unit that there is a minor discrepancy between the US and Aussie versions of the unit. The US radar has as its sensor 1 AN/TPS-77 radar, while the Aussie version has as its sensor 1 AN/TPS-70 radar.

Can I take this opportunity to ask whether speeds for aircraft are airspeed or groundspeed?

Im looking at F-16s going 960 knots and wondering what engines they have on them... cheers!

<t> well - you can sit most fighter aircraft on alert status, which means they are ready to go in the event they are needed. You can get an F-16 depending on block engine running and EGI systems aligned within a minute, ready to taxi. F-18s on alert actually wait with engines running to provide powe...

Mine isnt working... when I save the settings it does not remember them the next time I start seahag. It also gets an unhandled exception trying to find command, and even after setting the location of command manually it keeps looking for command each time.

<t> I do like how we have gone from the F-35 to MH370 to F-22s already...<br/> <br/> The F-35 is a plane I really want to live up to the hype (now that we are committed, more than ever). I have to say the avionics look pretty cool to operate. DAS seems like a really neat concept. LO technology is pr...

<r> The real question is whether or not the F-35s will get into situations requiring them to out-turn Flankers. Ideally, they will not. The big thing that has been repeated by LM at all levels has been that this aircraft is not about turning and burning, its about being a 'force multiplier' and usin...

<t> this is a tricky area, because the question becomes how much of the human factor do you want to model? Human factors are something I prefer to see relatively abstracted - have a mechanism for 'surprise' and perhaps one for 'morale' and leave it at that - and even the morale one is stretching it....

keeping in mind that even a single fighter jet has a rough gauge of range in their RWR... the things are programmed to work out a range estimate based on signal strength and display an emitter as inside or outside lethal range. Its not exactly geolocation mind you...

<t> well... for sneaking into EEZs... that already happens.<br/> <br/> as for armaments, if they are big enough to fit 2 or 3 sea containers on board, they are big enough to mount large SAM systems. Russia has been messing around with a IADS that ships in shipping containers - so you can have SAMs o...

thats actually already an option... under Game options.

well... they could look it up on the Command wiki, where each unit in the DB has their weapon arcs shown on a neat diagram.
