<r> This question has no doubt been asked before, but I wonder has anyone found any way of replicating the future concept of swarming drones?<br/>

My vote would be for an AAR function ahead of implementing full FOW.

Anyone know if you record a CMO session and then 'replay' it - will TacView pull its data from the replay to give you a 3D AAR?

<r> Anyone else having difficulties overwriting or not getting the new database to show up?<br/>
<br/>
Was looking forward to getting my dirty paws on these for some F-35 vs S400 action<br/>

<t> Late to the party here but I think what would be of real benefit to both beginners and veterans is a CMANO 'Strategy Guide' that not only explains HOW to do it, but WHY.<br/>
<br/>
I'm thinking of the old Total Air War, Tornado or flightsim manuals which gave you an overview of how the basics ...

<t> Oddly enough, I was privileged to have a look inside a professional distributed military training centre recently (think CMANO + DCS)for virtual Red Flag type exercises. <br/>

<t> Awesome work on the cockpit visibility request & dogfight improvements being included in this build so unbelievably quickly. [&o]<br/>

Quick Q though after updating - any aircraft selected in the DB (Cold War or DB3000k) will say "Cockpit visibility - not supported by this database ...

<t> Been pondering this one myself. (Discounting a RN SSN sailing underneath the battle group already with Spearfish primed).<br/>
<br/>
Answer I suspect would be SPEAR 3 + F-35s - eventually. <br/>

And after Brimstone, Storm Shadow next weapon to be integrated (according to the ...

<t> Nice little scenario.<br/>
<br/>
Had no trouble picking off the Flankers on CAP by sending F-35s in silent ECOM mode to whittle them done. <br/>
<br/>
Then arranged a couple of NSM strikes from remaining F-35s and the surface craft to sink the Russian SAG. <br/>

Finally a P-3 on ASW ...

<r> Its an interesting question. <br/>

Perhaps one justification or moral argument might be made that in putting high-fidelity simulation tools in the hands of military/defence industrial professionals - is it in fact the case that full-on high-intensity, state on state war might be <I><s>[i ...

Same here. Have a scenario where I have a flight of F-35s tasked with blasting a way through triple-digit SAM threats, only to find in Build 519 they are back to using guns again, instead of JDAMs...

Wow!

Amazing stuff! Thanks so much for the hard work in these continuous and regular updates - making a great simulation (I hesitate to use the word 'game') even better...

<t> Just some more details on planned UK F-35 weapons.<br/>
<br/>
Initial air-surface weapon of choice will be Paveway IV, with Storm Shadow planned.<br/>
<br/>
Beyond that the UK air-surface munitions are a requirement/programme called SPEAR (Selective Precision effects At Range)<br/>
<br ...

Excellent. That means we could simulate 1991 Iraq AD-style takedowns as well as 1999 Serbian Op Allied Force - by using different mixes of mobile/static SAMs

CMANO just keeps getting better and better...!

<t> Thanks emsoy - once again amazing feedback from the devs...!<br/>

Just a thought on generating coordinates for GPS weapons inflight - would it be possible perhaps to link it to whether the a/c is carrying a targeting pod? Ie: in DCS A-10C you can essentially pick-off lower-tier (non ...

<t> Ahh got you. So CMANO considers all mobile systems as essentially 'on the move' at all times? There's no such thing as a 'mobile' system that may be parked?<br/>

I guess I need the Paveway IV then with laser/GPS guidance - or possibly laser SDB II. Duelling a S-300 with F-35/Brimstone ...
