Database discrepancies?

Hi all!

I'm looking at the Kirov-clas BCGN in the latest database and see that from Frunze on there are no SA-N-9 "Gauntlet" VLS SAM systems installed. Please see link below.

Also in the database it says "SA-N-9 Grinch". Thus far, I haven't been able to find such a designation on the net. I've found SA-N-9 "Gauntlet", and SA-24 "Grinch". There is no navalised version of the SA-24.

The max range for SARH seeker on the SA-N-9 in the db is 160nm, and for the SA-N-7 it's 100nm.
Plus, the Mk1 Eyeball now has a 50nm range! [:D]
Typo's maybe?

Cheers!

Have corrected the SA-N-9 name, seeker range, etc. Thanks [8D]

The Mk1 Eyeball range is correct, you can see large contrails at up to 40nm [8D]

Re: the Frunze, pretty certain it never received SA-N-9. Photo:

You can see the SA-N-4 launcher just under the bridge, underneath the Top Dome and left of the Bass Tilts, and also the Pop Group guidance radars for the SA-N-4 just in front of the bridge. And you can tell its the Frunze because it has the 130mm gun and lacks SS-N-14, while still having AK-630 over CADS-N-1.

Kalinin did not have SA-N-9 installed as well, only the CADS-N-1.

Hm and according to this one the forward SA-N-9 launchers and Cross Swords radar was never installed on the Velikiy so should probably remove them:
