Outstanding. And thanks!

Running the new Build 498.

DB408 shows ADM-160 B/C range as 500nm (thanks!).

However, when launched the MALDs quickly run out of fuel and crash after 60nm or so.

Perhaps their fuel entry in the DB needs to be increased to match the new range?

Yep. The B-52 survived, and was then nicknamed named "In HARM's way"

I've been trying out a scenario that includes some Su-24MRs, with their RDS-BO Shtik side looking radar. <br/>

A related issue is what can be fit into its weapon stations. An LCS has four that could be modified. You could replace the 57-mm. gun and the Sea Ram missiles--they're not modular, so it would be a major job, but they could be replaced with ...

Hmm, that's interesting... was just looking at the wikipedia page and it doesn't list any A-10 squadrons at all, except for the two test/eval ones.

Anyone know if the A-10s are all reserve/ANG now?

I'd like to mention that I play Command in a VMWare virtual machine on my MacBook Pro.

So, Mac users need not be left out of the fun.

I do the same, but with a Parallels VM... runs well!
