Interesting conversation. I haven't tried to use them in CMO, but I did read https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/1915070643?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details . What the author of the linked book said made sense to me, you don't advertize a missile's (in the case of the DF-26) existence to the world ...

Please go ahead and close this. Guess I should have seen the need to manually mark contacts, I concede that the Schmel seems to be working correctly, and I'm not sure if the Mainstay's ESM should classify either. The altitude thing (mentioned in previous post) is neither here nor there, it's not ...

Zip file is corrupt according to windows and winrar.

edit...so you just changed a save file to a zip file by changing the extension? If you're going to do that, you should mention it.


Apologies for wasting your time with the file name change, I forgot I'd done that, this site wouldn't let me ...

As above - this is the 'Russian and Chinese Warplanes' tutorial, as run during current open beta (1328.5). AEW collects sensor data, but does not classify (either as hostile or as specific type) any contacts based on emissions or radar returns. This only occurs once unit has eyes on (ie Mk 1 eyeball ...

It seems that Matrix buyers' money is worth less than Steam buyers' money.

And no, switching to Steam for free is not my solution.


The free Steam key Slitherine offers Matrix owners means they get access to everything a Steam owner receives, plus the option of an alternative DRM, so if ...

When I switched to 1328.4 I found all DLC unlocked, including stuff I didn't buy. I found the correct DLCs locked on 1307.18. #makingmyselfpopular

Submarine warfare is a bit of an art, so there's not a whole lot out there (that's not classified :D ) to work off of, especially since there's been very little submarine combat since 1945, and only a single (confirmed) instance of a "Modern" submarine kill (one sub kills another while both are ...

I've taken the liberty of cutting out from the Dangerous Waters and 688i PDF manuals (which have hundreds of pages) and give you just the sections on how sonar and such works.

Some of the text will of course be specific to those sims, but you can read between the lines as lot of the principles ...

I'm happy you enjoyed my guide!

I'm not aware of any particular texts, but you may want to refer to the manuals of Submarine simulators like 688i Hunter/Killer and Dangerous Waters as possible sources. If you want I'll see if I can track down any PDF sources of them if you don't have those games ...

I was wondering if anyone here can recommend reading on submarine tactics. I'm particularly interested in search and evasion techniques, and if it's available, information on how to combine or move between them, for situations where one might be trying to evade ASW assets while seeking a particular ...

Sorry my shitpost but it may serve:

Enemy commander (=scen author) expects you to take shortest route and fall a trap. DO NOT DO WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO DO.

Thanks ...

Do you have a save? The only aircraft I see in tutorial 1.3 is an allied Bear. There should be no need to detect it, it should already be sharing its position with you.


I reran it in Release branch (ie non-beta) and it identified the aircraft as hostile and triggered a further event ...

Anyone else getting flashbacks to their high school exams?

This thread will probably be one long spoiler, so anyone wanting to avoid that might want to navigate away now...


I've been trying to do Surface Warfare Tutorial 1.5. I don't claim to be a naval expert (I'm more of a leg guy), but I'm having nothing but trouble.

My problem seems to be simple math ...

PL-15: "The missile's length (5.8 meters) means it can't be carried internally by the Chengdu J-20 "stealth" fighter." I think this statement may be incorrect. It contradicts its inclusion in the "Internal Long-Range" and "Standard Intercept" loadout information for the J-20. Below are links to ...

Save attached.

I keep forgetting I can save, I’ll run it again and post the save. I’m following the message box instructions to detect it ...

I'm doing Surface Warfare Tutorial 3 and I think I'm encountering a problem, possibly a bug. I get the text box telling me to temporarily deactivate my radar and allow my ESM to identify the radar on the unknown aircraft. It gets identified as a Big Bulge A, along with a Box Tail - obviously making ...

Am not certain if A2A missile can be fired BOL, but if they can it could simulate your second question. It has been a while and I am not near a game to test. But it is simple enough to do. Just launch an AC with A2A missiles and hit Ctrl+F1, and pick a spot to fire at - if it launches than you ...
