<t> IMO, deployments to most* of these islands are purely political and has little defensive value. Most of these islands are from a tactical point of view simply undefendable, but having a military presence reinforces your claim as the other claimants would have to confront the other nations ...

Welcome man, there is a good manual and quite alot of other reference material to learn the game. I'd also suggest starting out doing the smaller missions to learn the ropes.

<r> I would like to request these Algerian additions to the DB please.<br/>

<t> Dysta, many aspects of the Turkish police resembles a para-miltary force. It has been in Erdogans interest to keep a well armed police force as the Police is a direct sub-ordinate to the goverment, while the Army adheres to the people and the secular values of Ataturk, not the goverment per say ...

<r> Magi, thanks for your feedback.<br/>
<br/>
Positioning - This is meant to be a rushed get what you can in the fight sort of deal, not a pre-planned operation.<br/>
Composition - I agree, will add at least 2 more escorts.<br/>
Tankers - Yes, will double the amount of Victors available.<br ...

Red Iceland, 1980

Great work Bart.

Very good work Mikkey, impressive tbh.

I realised that i gave the Phantoms by default the "heavy" loadout when they really probably should have the "light" loadout becouse of the distance to the island. Will be fixed in release along with Canberra OECM planes.

<r> Thanks, appreciate it. I believe you are correct, what i read in the past and sadly can't find the source to verify again is that Soviet pilots flew Iraqi MiG-25's during the early stages of the Iran-Iraq war presumably until they had enough Iraqi pilots that could fly the type. I have no clue ...

Etendard IVP #67 seems like it is missing its internal recon loadout.

It is a recon plane with no loadout other then Tanker loadout, i am almost 100 % it can be used as a tanker so no error there just rather the lack of the recon one.

Not really news per say, but while retiring the Super Etendard from French navy service they released this video with alot of awesome footage.

<t> Thanks Mike for the feedback, i am personally not happy about this mission and i have been thinking about ways to improve it, i think i decided upon adding an option to play as a French CAG and setting up more default payloads already on planes etc.<br/>

I know the difference between PVO ...

This is genuinly awesome, really cool idea.

I would like to add that the Swedish sonar bouy vessel you can buy, B01 Ejdern does not function properly. You can't drop the bouys, so you might want to replace that with another vessel.

<B><s>[b]</s>Feedback im looking ...

With the excellent new port mechanics i thought to myself that a "Single-unit Naval Base" including a magazine and air facilities (rotary only) would be neat.

<r> Thanks for the feedback Supreme 2.0, i probably added that name as a placeholder at some point and forgot about it. I'll take a look and implement the other things too, they make sense and will improve the mission.Oh and one last thing, atleast in 1981 the russians really liked that shallow ...

<r> The Tapper class #2923 should have 6x depth charges.<br/>

Oh thanks, yeah i'll add a penalty for that.

You got all 5 subs, good job.

<t> I noticed the Doctrine is set wrongly for the Russians, leading to their ship attacking your ASW assets. Hotfix will be uploaded in original post, download removed for now. If you play the old version download this one or if you're in the editor you can change the russian RoE to hold fire.<br ...
