Greetings,

I'm new to CMANO.

I purchased Chains of War specifically because I am interest in Cold War era "cargo operations". However, most of the CW cargo planes do not seem to work properly with Cargo Operations. For example, the C-124 seems limited to a 2 (!!!) ton cargo loadout (~1/15 of its real-world capacity). But, I can't load ANY cargo because it has a 0/0 crew member rating, and ALL of the CW cargos have at least one crew member.

Transports in CWDB that are shared between databases do seem to work as expected (ex. C-2 greyhound, C-141A, C-130 varients).

If the Cargo Operations was only intended for use in the post-1980 database, then it might be a good idea to state that clearly in the CoW description where cargo operations are discussed, so that customers have a better idea of what they are purchasing.

By the way, here are a few transport planes that appear to be missing from the CWDB:

C-46

C-82

transport C-121 / VC-121
https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit ... mbine-iii/

C-133:

One tiny little detail that might not matter anyway: The R-3350 and R-4360 are NOT turboprops. They are very large radial piston engines.


Thank you.

Next time you're adding to the weapons of this database, could you please consider including the SM-62 Snark?

You know, I actually kind of disappointed that ROCS Tan Yang isn't in the Database.

Hi,
i want to report an issue: In both games the Alaska-Class Egine use 148 kg fuel per minute (Iowa about 4 kg). This ships cannot drive a lot, so it is difficult to design szenarios in WW2 Pacific.
I tried this a year ago and i rember more ships maybe USA Cruisers with the same issues. All in the CWDB and most WW2 ships

edit: USA Cruiser Stream - engines have the same problem like the USS Rochester Class
edit 2: the rochester has 2000 tons of fuel and with this lvl she has a normal range. The iowa has only 60 tons but only uses 4kg. But the Alaska uses 140 and has only 40 tons. She runs out of fuel at flank within 5 hrs. CL Cleveland uses only 3kg but has 1490 tons. She runs at flank for a year

I'm not sure where to put this as I believe the unit discrepancy involves shared units between CWDB and DB3K.

The 1972 variants of the A-6E have advanced computing bombsights but the 1975 variants have ballistic computing. If possible can the CWDB and DB3K versions of the 1975 A-6E have advanced computing bombsights or the 1972 variants of the A-6E have ballistic computing to correct this downgrade in bombsights?

Looking at the DB entry aircraft 2118, S35E Draken has all the targeting OODA entries set to 0, is it because it can only carry Recon pod?

Okay, deep down, we all know that everyone wants to use CMO to SINK THE BISMARCK!. To do this, we have to add the Bismarck, and a few other ships. So, here is my request, the first of a series, for the Bismarck-class battleships (both of them, and they are slightly different)...

Attached are technical details, cheerfully stolen from Wikipedia...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismarck-class_battleship

Thanks for considering these!

Along with the Bismarck, the Germans sent a consort cruiser, the Prinz Eugen. Prinz Eugen was a member of the Admiral Hipper class. She actually survived until the end of the Second World War, so she could have theoretically been part of some alternate history mission in the late 1940s.

Please consider adding the Admiral Hipper class. Thanks!

Please consider adding the HMS Hood. Might be interesting to see how she would fare in a rematch against Bismarck and Prinz Eugen. (Prince of Wales can be modeled with King George V...I don't know if there were enough differences between the two vessels to justify different entries in the database. If there are, please consider adding her, too.)

Possible database error...

#2117 Factory Trawler
Based on how long these ships typically stay out, and how far out they go, the fuel should be 60 tons rather than 12 tons. This would increase the range so that these very large trawlers can reach remote spots in the ocean.

Thanks for considering this.

DB3K AIM-7E4 Sparrow III - range : 16nm
CWDB AIM-7E4 Sparrow III - range : 24nm

DB3K AIM-7E2 Sparrow III - range : 16nm
CWDB AIM-7E2 Sparrow III - range : 24nm

DB3K AIM-9J Sidewinder - range : 7.82nm
CWDB AIM-9J Sidewinder - range : 10nm

DB3K AIM-9H Sidewinder - range : 9.5nm
CWDB AIM-9H Sidewinder - range : 10nm

DB3K AIM-9G Sidewinder - range : 9.5nm

F-4J Phantom II(1972~1974) didn't mount AIM-7F Sparrow III

AIM-7F Sparrow III was introduced in 1974 and IOT&E of AIM-7F in 1978.

@Boogabooga,your post #822 has been logged. Be advised that CMANO/CMO deliberately uses a turboprop propulsion model for all propeller-driven aircraft.

L5 mod 3 torpedo

Post by pclaurent »

L5 mod 3 torpedo (French navy) was for ASW *and* anti surface ship combat, not only ASW.
It had a 5 nm range (not 3 nm)
