Interesting, but is there any way to disable small arms against armored targets? It doesn't do anything other than give your position away.

<r> My AT squad sometimes only engages BTRs with their rifles and refuses to use their LAWs (they have ammo), any ideas why?<br/>

No worries, glad to hear.

I'm using the Steam version, scenario is using DB 3000 version 447. I'm assuming the database is updated along with the game, or is there a way to manually update the db that I haven't heard of?

<t> Playing the newest community mission pack right now. On mission "The Lost Province", the Type 54A++ Jiangkai 2 refuses to fire HQ-16As against cruise missiles. ctrl+f1 targeting gives the "unable to connect to firing unit with mandatory datalink" message. What is this?<br/>

<r> Just bought the game and updated it to the newest version. WiTPTracker worked fine for the Coral Sea Scenario, but when I started the campaign I got this:<br/>

<t> No I meant the force hunting the subs. I believe that in exercises both sides refrain from using active sonar in fear of harming the marine ecosystem, which would play out to the benefit of the subs.<br/>

Similar situation to news reports a while back where Chinese subs surfaced within x ...

<t> Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the reason why modern diesel subs are highly successful in these military exercises is because they aren't pinging away with active sonar like a real combat environment. If they were, you'd end up with tons of dead marine animals and a huge PR disaster.<br ...

Especially for F-22s and F-35s with external loadouts. Also, do they fire external munitions first?

<t> In the Damn The Torpedoes mission, USS Pharris starts off as detected and identified by the Soviets. They are also able to accurately track the Pharris (including precise heading & speed) without any of their ships or aircraft in detection range. Pharris was placed into passive emissions only at ...

Neat! Thanks!

I always assumed that the missile max effective range is denoted by the circles on the map, since the circles shrink/expand when I change the altitude.

<t> 1. Yes the aircraft is facing the target.<br/>
2. The aircraft is well within the launch altitude<br/>
3. SA-3 Site is continuously emitting<br/>

Anyways, the error message for all 3 of the above situations would be different from what I am getting right now.<br/>

<t> I have a group of Su-24s armed with AS-12 ARMS pitted against a static SA-3C. The AS-12 has a range of 20nm, but even at 36000 feet altitude and 16nm range to target I get the message that the target is out of the DLZ. Why would a static target with a known location be out of the DLZ?<br/>

Thanks!

<t> I am stumped when it comes to hitting airfields, logic tells me that cratering the runway is enough to cripple the airfield. But after more than a dozen hits with MK82 500lb bombs the runway damage status according to the editor is 99% "operating with reduced capacity". Is there something else ...
