[UPDATED DB v437]

Only a bunch of cosmetic changes for the DB. I may have posted some of these already but I guess they were overlooked at some point.

DBID #1794 - Airbus A.310-304 MRTT could get the name attachment [CC-150T Polaris] (Also sometimes simplified as Polaris MRTT).

DBID #1057 - Mi-35M2 Hind has the local nickname "Caribe".

DBID #2393 - Mi-26T2 Halo has the local nickname "Pemon" or "Pemón".

DBID #2223 - Mi-17V5 Hip H (of the Venezuelan Army only) has the local nickname "Panare".

DBID #654 - NH90 NFH of the German Navy should be designated NH90 NTH [Sea Lion]. There's also a note that Germany acquires 30 units but actually it's 18 now.

(If you're looking for how legitimate the names for the Venezuelan Mi's are, simply google some pictures. They write the names on the helos.)

[UPDATED DB v437]

Small request for a scenario I am working on, is it possible to get some kind of special forces loadout for the CV-22? (id #296).

Right now it has two forms of cargo and Search and Rescue but I think Special Operations Command uses them for lots of cloak and dagger stuff too?

Not exactly sure how many but I am seeing mention of 18 here:

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ ... /cv-22.htm

The CV-22 variant would travel 500 nautical miles at or below 500 feet above ground level, locate a small landing zone, infiltrate and exfiltrate a team of 18 special operations forces, and return to base.

Anyone else have good info on the CV-22? I'm also seeing a CV-22B designation floating around but it's all a bit vague (thats AFSOC for you I guess)

Thanks!

Sorry about the Brimstone II issue. Have readded to our work list.

Thanks again Jan for the detailed request.

Mike

Hi Mike,

I can see you've updated the Tornado and Typhoon FGR.4 to carry this weapon, please can you also update the UK's F-35B to carry this weapon. It's effectively replaced the original Brimstone.

Thanks

[UPDATED DB v437]

Hello,

I think I found some data which is switched around by accident:

Super Etendard Agave Radar Range: 85 nm
Super Etendard M Anemone Radar Range: 40 nm

shouldnt this be the other way around? [;)]

[ALREADY IMPLEMENTED]

Currently in database warheads of #109 - SS-N-19 Shipwreck [P-700 Granit],#219 - AS-14 Kedge [Kh-29T]and #2193 - AS-14 Kedge [Kh-29L] is simple HE warheads this is wrong

from site of FGUP FNPC "Altai" (manufacturer of these warheads)
#109 - SS-N-19 Shipwreck [P-700 Granit]
#219 - AS-14 Kedge [Kh-29T]and #2193 - AS-14 Kedge [Kh-29L]
both are high-explosive penetrating warhead accordind to FGUP FNPC "Altai"




also accordind to FGUP FNPC "Altai" #1365 - SS-N-2a Styx [P-15],#1364 - SS-N-2b Styx [P-15U],#1477 - SS-N-2c Improved Styx [P-15M],#1597 - SS-N-2d Improved Styx [P-20M]
have high-explosive cumulative warhead

can you please make necessary changes in database

#519 Paveway IV:
In the DB, this bomb is noted as "INS /w GPS navigation", and can engage any land targets but only with GPS guidance. However, the Paveway IV actually has an additional SALH tracker, that should improve its capability against moving land targets as well as enable it to attack naval targets.

Additionally, #2259 GBU-54(V)1/B LJDAM [Mk82] and #2260 GBU-54(V)2/B LJDAM [Mk82] should also both have laser spot trackers for terminal illumination.

[ADDED DB pre-436]

Small Database addition, the F-35A for the RAAF (Australia)

First two aircraft training with the USAF 61st Fighter squadron as of december last year
72 on order and provisions for another 28 delivery beginning in 2020

Apologies for the punctuation but doing it all correctly made the forum think I was posting links and phone numbers and crap when I am clearly not, so I had to remove bits of punctuation to the point where I now look silly for me to be able to post this message.

Check out the raaf wiki page and its attached sources, I cannot link you to currently as my registration is too fresh.

Exceptionally fine game gentlemen!, keep up the good work.

[ADDED DB pre-436]

I second that. fiddling with a 2020 scenario had to use a US f35 for Oz squadrons

[FIXED DB pre-436]

DB Error: F/A-18E Suport Hornet Mk 63 Quickstrike {mk83] Naval Mine - Quantity of mines in load = 0

[UPDATED/ADDED DB v437]

Hi there,

minor request here, could you please rename:

[*]#2486 - Y-8G Cub [High New 4][/color] to "Y-8G Cub [High New 3]"
[*]#3690 - Y-8T Cub [High New 3][/color] to "Y-8T Cub [High New 4]"
[*]#3683 - Y-9 Cub [High New 10, KJ-500 Rotodome][/color] to "Y-9 Cub [High New 9 KJ-500]"

Cheers.

PS:

[*]#3692 - Y-8ELINT Cub [High New 8][/color]

It could be "Y-9JB Cub [High New 8]".

This newest member of the "High New" series was first spotted in April 2011 at CFTE (S/N 720?). Unlike Y-8W, Y-9JB is based on the new Y-9 platform powered by four WJ-6C turboprop engines with 6-blade high efficiency propellers. As an EW aircraft it features four large rectangular shaped ELINT antennas on both sides of the forward and rear fuselage. Additional antennas are installed inside fairings at the wingtips, beneath and on top of the mid-fuselage, on top of the vertical tailfin, underneath the nose as well as inside the nose/tail cone. Four blade antennas are installed on top of the wing near the wing root. An EO turret (containing FLIR/TV) is also mounted underneath the fuselage for surveillance purpose. Y-9JB has been speculated as an advanced ELINT platform similar to American EP-3. At least two High New 8 were constructed by spring 2012. The newly constructed aircraft now features two additional small vertical stabilizing fins on its tail. The first Y-9JB entered the service with PLAN in early 2013. Currently at least three are in service (S/N 9211, 9221, 9241). They have been flying routine ELINT missions over the East China Sea facing Japan.

Thanks, we already have the KJ-500 on the queue but the Y-9JB is new. Added to the stack.

F-35 is planned to carry AARGM, though the date isn't set as far as I can tell. It would be reasonably safe to put them on the 2024 US F-35As.
