US Lockheed EC-130H Compass Call

This OECM aircraft have only one generic average OECM onboard. Compared to other smaller fighter size jammer aircrafts it seems to be weak on jamming. Is it possible to add more jammers or maybe more advanced version. Compass Call is USAF's primary jam-platform specially designed for the job, so it seems odd it's so weak at doing it. It has much more room for larger jammers and bigger crew than example EA-18G Growler. I know that Compass Call main task is to jam communications but it's also able to jam radars.

Can you look into it, thanks!

Hi

I was looking at Serbian facilities and they don't have 2K12 Kub listed, they also lack Bofors 40mm L-70 and the Zirafa Radar (Swedish Giraffe) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIRAFFE_Radar
Don't know if Neva-M1T or Kub M2 are represented but these are the latest upgrades they have.

They also using a set of radars that I'm not able to see listed

S-605/654 Observation radars
S-613 Altitude measurement radar
AN/TPS-70 3D radar
AS-74 and AS-84 automatized systems

The 250th Air Defence Missile Brigade operates SA-3 and SA-6 surface-to-air missile systems. The military is upgrading both types with fire-and-forget ability. The air force has upgraded "Neva-M" to the "Neva-M1T" standard and "Kub-M" to "Kub-M2".[9][10][11] For defending air bases and important infrastructures Bofors 40mm L-70 in complement with M-85 Zirafa radars are used

AN/SSQ-47 (we called them Ranger Buoys) - until they get withdrawn (carrying them with CAMBS was a cost saving measure - dropping a CAMBS was a 10k+ cost per buoy!!)

Thanks, do you know ca when the AN/SSQ-47 got retired?

Hi there [8D]

Do you know when the above systems entered Serbian service? Need to add in-service years in the database.

Thanks!

[FIXED DB v440]

G'day, the arc coverage for JORN is not accurate?

the JORN transmitter included in the DB has an arc of about 120 degrees, maybe 135 degrees?

however two of the 3 JORN sites have only 90 degrees coverage, and the WA site at laverton has a 180 degree coverage.

is it possible we could have instead of a single transmitter, a pair, one 90 degree transmitter and one 180 degree transmitter? thanks.

[ADDED DB v440]

#1742 - DD 110 Takanami [Improved Marusame] should have the option for #927 - RIM-162B ESSM in its VLS in addition to RIM-7M Seasparrow and VL ASROC. At some point the class was upgraded with ESSM capability, but I can't find a hard date.

Posted: **Sat Dec 14, 2013 10:22 am**

Added fix requests for Jorn and the destroyer.

Full C-RAM may have to wait until we get mechanics for shooting down rockets/artillery.

Reading about the Red Storm scenario in project, I remembered this link I hope can help (I don't know if these radar sites are implemented in the database):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Un ... ted_States
The Iceland sites are designated H-xx, and in each individual entry of Iceland radar sites on Wikipedia are listed the radar types of each site.
Other link with links to similar stuff:

This site actually has several models of private luxury submarines (and the site has full spec sheets for them). These offer numerous opportunities for scenarios...

* terrorists
* billionaires who must be protected or rescued for someone else

Requesting Myanmar's Air Force...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_Air_Force

In particular, these are the main aircraft (according to sources like Military Balance). I'm not sure if they are different from other export versions already in the database, but it would be helpful to add Myanmar itself and the years that the specific aircraft are active (to the extent this can be determined).

A few aircraft are not already in the database, so links are provided for those...

MiG-29B Fulcrum
F-7 (MiG-21F) Fishbed C
A-5M (Q-5II) Fantan <-- same version as Pakistan?
An-12 Cub
F-27 Friendship

PC-6A Turbo Porter/PC-6B Turbo Porter
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilatus_PC-6

Cessna 180 Skywagon
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_180

G-4 Super Galeb
K-8

PZL W-3 Sokol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PZL_W-3_Sok%C3%B3%C5%82

Mi-17 (Mi-8MT) Hip H

PZL MI-2 Hoplite
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mil_Mi-2

Bell 205 <-- included as the UH-1; does the Bell 205 itself need to be added?
Bell 206 JetRanger
SA-316 Alouette III

Thanks for considering these!

While we're on the subject of Myanmar, could we also get its navy?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_Navy

Apparently, they have their own indigenous frigates, the Aung Zeya-class, detailed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aung_Zeya_class_frigate

Along with their frigates (they have a couple of Chinese ones, too; I am not sure if they have been modified or not), they've got about a dozen missile boats and a dozen gun-only fast attack craft. That's a pretty solid little navy.

Posted: **Thu Dec 19, 2013 3:00 am**

And while we're on the subject of solid little navies where you might not have expected to find them, the following ships should be added to Bangladesh...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sh ... adesh_Navy

With most of these classes, the ships were purchased from other countries, but a lot of the original weaponry appears to have been replaced or upgraded, so they will probably need their own entries in the database.

At least one class, the Padma-class patrol vessel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padma_Class) is indigenous; I don't think anyone else uses it. I did not see it in the DB3000.

Thanks again for considering these.
