Re-reporting: Not super priority because nuclear war is boring and the Advanced Cruise Missile was in reality an Advanced Gravity Bomb, but entry

#567 B-52H 1991 AGM 129A has no AGM-129As in aircraft stores or loadouts.

Can you verify you're using the latest DB (403). With that model doesn't look that that version carries the AGM-129A. You may need to update the scenario you're working on to the latest DB.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is already in the database or not, but I could not find it, and if it is not, here's a weapon that should be added...

Interesting. We'll take a look and see but this might be a little early yet.

Thanks!

Yes, I certainly can verify it. Here is a quick scenario built with build 484 and DB 403. Go to the ready/arm screen. No AGM-129A loadout option. Go to the database viewer, no AGM-129A is listed. The model is called B-52H AGM-129A 1991. Only ALCMs listed are AGM-86B and AGM-86C (The C isn't technically accurate for the H in 1991 - that was a G thing until late 92 early 93, but close enough really.)

Hi All

Need some help digging up info to complete some of your requests. Combat Fleets 2013 and googling isn't coming up with much:

Indonesian missile boat KRI Clurit (KRC-40 Class)

Anybody know the sensors these vessels carry?

Australia- Stonefish Mk. III fine. Lots of Mk.II out there but not so much on Mk.III any details would help.

Myanmar- Aung Zeya Frigates- Need sensor info. Vast differences between internet sources and paper sources on what SSM's are carried.

Thanks!

Mike

I attended a defense trade show in Indonesia a couple years ago and I know for a fact that several sensors onboard are Chinese and not "integrated". I have a few pictures of the vessel, would that help you? If yes, PM or email me.
Edit: I may even have the manufacturer's datasheet, but not much info on it IIRC

Request for:

Polish radars:

TRD-1222/NUR-12M

some links:
banqan.republika.pl/devices/devices_trd1222.html
dziennikzbrojny.pl/artykuly/art,6,30,5320,lotnictwo,wyposazenie,stacje-radiolokacyjne-nur-12-i-nur-12m-n-12n-12m

TRD-1222 is quite important as it is a part of NATO long range radar network (along with RAT-31DL). It is upgraded version of TRD-1211 which is in database.

also:
N-11
N-26
N-31
N-41

all listed here: banqan.republika.pl/devices/devices.htm

I can help with translation of technical parameters and finding additional data on these radars as most information is in polish language.


I've also added a couple of issues to the Google spreadsheet.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this one, but it looks like the Thomaston-class dock landing ship is not in the DB3000. (It is in the CWDB, so at least all the data should be available).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomaston_ ... nding_ship

Another one I can't find in the DB3000 is the Reliance-class cutter. Information can be found here...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium_Endurance_Cutter
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USCGC_Reli ... MEC-615%29

(Some of them, although they are about 50 years old, are still in active service.)

Requesting that the Mk 29 Sea Sparrow launchers on US Nimitz-class CVNs and later LHDs from ~2008+ be modified to include RIM-162D Evolved Sea Sparrow missile. Currently none of them carry it. I believe the D variant was specifically designed for use on these ships.

mx1,
Any chance you have links and/or maps of radar types and locations in Poland, much appreciated if you do.

When possible, could the following aircraft for the Mexican air force (and others, in some cases) be added...

Pilatus PC-7
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilatus_PC-7 <-- can carry bombs and rockets

Cessna 182
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_182_Skylane <-- used for reconnaissance

Also, I'm not sure if Mexican versions of these aircraft...

F-5E & F-5F Tiger II

...need their own entries or not. Many are already in the database, but I don't know if the Mexican versions are unique in any way (sensors, etc.) or not.

More information (and other aircraft possibilities) are here...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico_air_force
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Naval_Aviation

Again, I know that it takes a fair amount of time and effort to add platforms to the DB3000. I would like to have these platforms added because I would like to write more scenarios involving Mexico, the USCG, etc. but I know it may take a while for that to happen.

Thanks for considering these.

Precise locations of TRD-1222 and RAT-31DL radars (NATO Backbone) provided as an KMZ file: drive.google.com/file/d/0B_vdeIgZhq1cVjF5Uk9MMUFkZ00/edit?usp=sharing

Right now I have only information regarding Air Force. Navy and Army have their own radars in addition to these. Currently used types are:
- 3 units of NUR-12M + 3 units of RAT-31DL (see above), more NUR-12M ordered (4 more units?)
- mobile medium range TRS-15 (NUR-15) - most probably 6 units, six more ordered
- NUR-12 - mobile long range (predecessor of NUR-12M) most probably 7 units
- NUR-31,NUR-31MK / NUR-41 (work in pair: 31 is range+direction 41 is altitude information) - unknown number, will be withdrawn from service after delivery of additional NUR-15 and NUR-12M radars.
- AVIA W - general air traffic control

All types mentioned above are described on the official site of Air Force 3brt.wp.mil.pl/pl/12.html (add www before it).
As for the location - they are mobile units (with the exception of NUR-31MK which is semi-mobile and AVIA W) so they can be deployed almost anywhere. The location of units operating them is known and I can provide KMZ for them as well. I still gather info on Navy and Army and will post it here.

Gregg I've been digging through my sources. As of 2011 all Carriers had this upgrade and 2 LHD's (Makin Island, Wasp) although doesn't look like others got it. America appears too. Any ideas?

I'll dig around further to see if I can find when the SSDS Mk 2+ updates were made.

From what I've seen all of the carriers plus the last two LHDs (Iwo Jima and Makin Island - Iwo Jima was one of the first SSDS Mk 2 ships and Makin Island had the system upon delivery), and soon the new LHA 6s starting with America. I had not heard about Wasp but that ship would probably be the next most likely to receive ESSM.

#2380 Type 052 Luhu [113 Qingdao] is missing the China SJG-2006 TASS that her sister ship class #2379 Type 052 Luhu [112 Haribin] has. #2380 indicates that it has the "New TASS".
