All done

Something re the F-106 Delta Dart.
In CWDB both the Air Defense Command and ANG versions have a internal cannon
In reality the cannon was added in "Project Six Shooter" in 1972 and replaced the Genie in the bomb bay.
So the original F-106 had none...

Ask I posted in the 460 build thread, the C 551 Garibaldi crashes the database viewer.
The unit itself has two weaprecs for 1. 16 Polaris and 2. 4 Polaris, while 0/4 Polaris would be better.

It also doesn't seem to have a magazine.

F-100A should be Fighter.
F-100C/F-100D should be Multirole (Fighter/Attack).
F-100F should be Trainer.

F-100F was used as Wild Weasel, FAST FAC and probably more in Vietnam, not trainer only.
F-105B/F-105D should be Multirole (Fighter/Attack).

She was a Fighter/Bomber intended for ground attack only, not really true Multirole.

I think "Fighter/Bomber" equals to Multirole in CMANO.
Because there is no Fighter-Bomber in table "EnumAircraftType".

Something I noticed trying to create a "EC-121 shootdown" scenario.
USS Enterprise (CVAN/CVN-65) in CWDB is totally unarmed, while most online sources agree that Sea Sparrow was fitted in 1967.

The Kynda class cruisers in their early version carry the P-5 land attack missile, which was only used on submarines in reality.
From all sources I could find, the Kyndas had the P-35 antiship missile from the start. They were purpose designed anti-ship systems, so arming them with a land attack missile didn't make much sense.

Using NATO designations for russian missiles still confuses things a lot.
P-5 was a land attack cruise missile like the US regulus, while P-35 was a dedicated anti-ship missile with a video-radar link (which is actually a small radar screen installed in the missile with a video camera pointing at it!)
As the original missile for the seeker-datalink system didn't work, they installed it in the P-5 body.

Request a couple of additional civilian aircraft be added to the database:

DC-3
B-707
B-747
Airbus

Other ones
DC-6,7,8
Il-18
Super Constellation
De Havilland Comet
Bristol Britannia

Can all be tweaked out of existing military aircraft

It just occured to me that the US subs in the CWDB are very unorganized, some are with hull numbers (SSN-) while some are called "tang class" or "Guppy" without hull number.

Some seem to be missing, most notably
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Triton_%28SSRN-586%29

Also I noted that radar pickets can use air search their radar from periscope depth while they should have to surface

Minor thing. Soviet Zulu I-III-class submarines did not have snorkel. Is it possible to remove them so they have to surface to get air for diesels. Or is it more complicated, because all other need periscope depth.

Source: Norman Polmar, Guide to Soviet Navy (third edition)

What about Juliett, November and other Soviet older missile subs. IRL they had to surface to launch their missiles. I tested and this and Juliett class rised to -16m and launched Shaddock-missiles. Could surfacing modeled and maybe get longer delay to launch their missiles for older classes.

Thanks!

Since "what if" ships are included in the database (example Wyoming Class), I have a few ships I would like to see included. The battlecruisers HMS Tiger and HMS Hood, as well as the battleships HMS Iron Duke & HMS Nelson. Any other of the Royal Navy's battleships or battlecruisers would be a nice touch. Anyway, just thought I would put in my request. [:)]Thanks

Whoops. Sorry. I was looking for the airliners under "civilian" and not "commercial." I must remember to engage brain before typing....

AN/APS-20 has too good surface search range. (200nm !!!)
AN/APS-80A on P-3B only has 80nm.


Please reduce it to 62nm.[&o]
