RE: Scenario ideas...seeking feedback

Nothing wrong with having fun. But mgellis did ask for feedback.
If realism isnt a factor, set the conflict to 2020. The database just doesnt support a 2025 conflict yet.

RE: Scenario ideas...seeking feedback

<t> You’ll run into big issues with the 2025 timeframe. The database isn’t there yet.<br/>
I’m currently trying to build some sort of Pacific Campaign myself which is set in 2020. Its doable, but it have quite a list of stuff that is simply missing or outdated.<br/>

Anyway, IMO it wouldn’t ...

RE: [839.7] ASuW Strike beyond fuel range

<t> You mean adapting WRA settings to just firing all missiles at the task force even if its not necessary?<br/>
Obviously this would be possible, but i dont have a problem with the aircraft not firing more missiles than allowed by WRA settings.<br/>

[FIXED B928] ASuW Strike beyond fuel range

<t> Hey guys<br/>
<br/>
Probably another bug unless im missing something. I set up a simple Maritime ASuW Mission without a pre-planned target list (basically engaging every contact) and added some JH-7B Flounders with YJ-12s.<br/>
Works fine as far as Flounders launch on detection and engage the ...

Real-time satellite imagery with SAR is a thing, so US is truly is running out of option. If they know it's expensive and take time to produce, then they should focus on upgrade current ships with MK41, then use bigger budget for tooling to mass-produce missiles to suit ...

I didn't say LRASM was made to be drastically superior to Harpoon. I was about to say it can be hugely loaded inside MK41 VLS for fewer ships, as well as the air-launch variants for stealth aircrafts to reduce the risk being intercepted.<br/>

RE: [839.7] Modern US Bomber Aircraft – Range and Weapons

<r> Depends on how far you want to drift into alleged black drag reducing tech. There has been lots of talk about the aircraft charging the leading edges to mess with the airflow. Who knows if there is some truth to it did, but the sighting of an unknownaircraft with glowing edges over Wichita in ...

I'm not talking about the radius, i'm talking about total range as shown in unitfuel.png. <br/>
Currently you can fly a loaded B-1B 3400nm straight until it runs out of fuel. And an empty Lancer will make 9476nm ...

RE: Turkish Coup Events

<t> Dont think so.<br/>
Only thing i can think of is a Lua script deleting the unit and adding it again with a different name (and adding it to whatever mission as well).<br/>
The problem is to have the new unit appear at the exact position of the old one. I dont think there is a Lua query to get ...
