Dimitris,
Broadly speaking, you are correct. I am away from my references right now, but will be able to give a more quantified answer this weekend.

Good post. It's like I was time warped back into a classroom at Groton. Some subtle changes in CZ's may up the realism. Got people talking for sure.

<r> I’m a former US Navy Sonar Technician who bought CMANO the first week it was released and have been enjoying it and CMO ever since. Great job overall – BZ to the entire development team. [&o]<br/>
Early on I noticed a couple of fundamental problems with the modeling/rules associated with sonar ...

<t> Well, I guess this means I'd better finish my recommended changes to the sonar model. I started working on it two days after I bought the sim back in... '13 was it? I was a sonar tech in the USN (note my board-name), and noticed some really glaring inaccuracies that are still there after all ...

<r> Please forgive me if I am brief. I got home from a 12-hour shift, spent over an hour writing a detailed response, then accidentally deleted it with a key-stroke. I am very tired and very angry with myself.<br/>

<t> I concur with Crazy Ivan's Sprint & Spartan inputs. I've been working on them too. His performance figures are good. I can re-edit and give you my sensor & facilities information (both real & hypothetical) in the next week or two. Making them "hypothetical" in DB3000 is a good idea.</t>

<t> Yeah, it's a data-bomb, I know. Much of the effort in the last few months has been simplifying and streamlining. That's why I took a modular approach:<br/>
<br/>
Make/modify the records ---> Use the records to make/modify the mounts ---> Use the mounts to build the facilities.<br/>

Get ready for the KB-2! [:D]

<r> HUZZAH! I can finally post in the right thread. I'd like to celebrate by posting what I hope is the last installment of my Nike facilities requests:<br/>

The United States activated the first Nike Ajax battery in 1955. The last Ajax battery was shutdown in 1964. It had been superseded by ...

Bump for the previous message (which had extra corrections) since .Sirius may be fiddling with US SAMs soon. [;)]

<r> This is a bump for the Nike Ajax recommendations for easy comparison with the Nike Hercules recommendations.<br/>
<br/>
As an addendum to the above, <U><s>[u]</s>change the abilities for the Nike Ajax Acquisition Radar (ACQR, aka LOPAR) to "Early '60s" and the Ajax Target Tracking Radar (TTR ...

<r> I wanted to put this in the Cold War Database Platform Request thread, but the forum software isn't allowing it. I conferred with .Sirius and he asked me to create a new thread, so here it is:<br/>

<t> At Okinawa, the 8th Air Force had just arrived from Europe after re-equipping with B-29, and was setting up shop. The 3-star commander of the 8th AF was pissed-off about these strangers landing unannounced, and drove out to give 'em hell.<br/>

The misunderstanding was quickly resolved ...

<t> Although the Hiroshima mission went pretty much according to plan, the mission on August 9th was a Charlie Foxtrot.<br/>
<br/>
The strike aircraft ("Bock's Car") was supposed to rendezvous with two other B-29 observation planes over Iwo Jima. One plane was there, but the other was a no-show ...

I'm just guessing here, but I would think that the skin and landing gear of a plane on the ground would act as a grounded Faraday cage, providing some protection for electronics inside. I would not make a change without data.

<t> I am currently working on a list of recommended changes to the Cold War Database to more accurately model the Nike Hercules SAM system. I have a couple of questions about how ECCM is modeled in CMANO vis-a-vis Surface-to-Air Missile guidance.<br/>

<r> The changes you made to Bomarc in CWDB 467 are great!<br/>
<br/>
The command guidance based on search radar data and onboard terminal homing works well. Full-range engagements out to ~400nm are fun. So is playing the offense and denying the Bomarcs their search radars (either by jamming ...

no sarcasm FYI. if i may ask, where is this stuff on NIKE/BOMARC coming from?

<r> I tried to post this in the Cold War Database Platform Requests thread, but it will not let me. So, like I did with the BOMARC Corrections, I am post this here.<br/>
