French decommission #2885 and sell to Argentine as ARA Bouchard. P 51. Maybe never in French services but tech demonstrator all along.

DB480 does not contain.
Can you please add to the stores of the F-5EM?

Spotted another China related mistake: The GAOFEN-4 Geostationary Satellite is misplaced on the other side of the earth. In reality, it hovers roughly over Singapore.

I saw Database in SQLite and it seems like those radars didn't have flag of frequency agile.

Guys, we need more info on this. Afterwards don't complain that your favorite kit is missing this flag [;)]

I did so I can complain; is that right? (Or did I requested too much?)

Hello!

The general utility Blackhawks (UH-60A/L/M) should have the M130 General Purpose Dispenser for flares and chaff, as well as the appropriate version of the AN/ALQ-144 Countermeasures Set depending on age (Seems to be AN/ALQ-144 for UH-60A, AN/ALQ-144v1 for later A's and UH-60L.)

Unfortunately, the forum won't let me post links for having too few posts, but the FAS military analysis network website contains further info on the Blackhawk and AN/ALQ-144 pages.

Thanks!

Hello friends.

Please increase the maximum range of the fifth generation RADS Spike NLOS missile to 30 kms. Well-known user, Colombia in its ARPIA IV helicopters as of 2018.

South Korean A330 MRTT designated as 'KC-330 Cygnus'. I hope it gets fixed soon.

[Tookatee]

The #3608 AIM-120D should have its name changed to MIM-120D with its "Range (anti-air):" value changed to 1-37.5 nautical miles in addition to the #3222 Thales Hawkei Veh receiving the ability to load the #2771 MIM-120C-7 and the #3502 MIM-9X.

Currently, the #3608 AIM-120D is an exact duplicate of the #51 AIM-120D, with the only difference between the two is the fact that the #3608 AIM-120D has only one default weapon carrier (the #3222 Thales Hawkei Veh.) They should not be identical since the Thales Hawkei uses a variant of the NASAMS (either the AIM-120C-7 [in the form of the #2771 MIM-120C-7] currently in service or the AIM-120D that's expected to enter service in Australia), which would not have the exact same effective range of an air launched missile (due to it being launched from a stationary position it's range is typically halved [as is properly demonstrated with the other entries for the NASAMS missiles in the database].)

Additionally, this specific variant of the NASAMS is the first that will also be able to fire the #2780 AIM-9X Block 2 in the form of the #3502 MIM-9X using a common ground rail on the HML or in the Mk 2 canister launcher.

Finally, the #3222 Thales Hawkei Veh has completely incorrect sensors (it's main radar is the obsolete and incompatible AN/FPS-66 when it should have the modern CEAOPS AESA radar [an evolution of the ship-mounted CEATAC radar], which will come mounted on an Army Rheinmetall HX77 8×8 truck, in addition to Raytheon’s AN/AAS-52 Multispectral Targeting System (MTS)-A [used for targeting the MIM-9X's], plus the Raytheon MTS-A electro-optical infrared (EO/IR) sensor will be mounted on a 5m telescopic mast in a housing on the back of a Hawkei PMV.)

As far as I know, South Korea A330 MRTT has flying boom and wing drogue system. But CMO's South korea A330 MRTT has only wing drogue refueling system.

Because of this, All South Korea aircraft cannot be refuelled by MRTT.

And South Korean A330 MRTT designated as 'KC-330 Cygnus'. I hope it gets fixed soon.

SK's A330 MRTT has flying boom for KF-16/F-15K fighters in CMO. Better update Data base to newest build.

It's just been announced that the F-35A will also be getting the JSOW in the coming days (before the end of 2019, if not before the end of November). With Block 3F, only the F-35C was being certified for the JSOW, but due to the F-35C test flights generating enough data and the similarities between the F-35A and F-35C, the USAF will be certifying the JSOW for the F-35A as well (likely only for internal carriage however) based on that data.
