PA 58 Verdun is in the game currently, but most of the things I've read about her seem to include a navalized variant of the Mirage IV. Could this be added?

Could you check the US FRAM gearings (and maybe the sumners as well) but their fuel consumption is way off...like 1 years worth of fuel...the Fletchers seem ok.

Also none of the FRAMs or Albany, Des Moines, Iowa etc have any UNREP capability.

Thanks!

I hope this hasn't been listed yet, but the B-50D (unit id: 502) in the CWDB has a maximum fuel capacity of 1365 kg which severely limits its utility.

From a quick search I found its capacity was closer to 13,000+ kg.

The Safeguard ABM facility is currently unusable in its current form. The Spartan needs to have its maximum target speed set to 11000 knots and maximum target altitude set to 560 KM. It also needs it's datalink range increased to 460 miles and be equipped with a 5 Megaton warhead. The Sprint needs its maximum speed to be increased to 6615 knots and its acceleration to be increased to 981 m/s it also will reach its maximum speed in the 0-65000 ft range. The Sprint's maximum target velocity needs to be increased to 10500 knots and maximum target altitude to 40 km. The Air POH for the sprint should also be increased as the missile demonstrated extreme accuracy to the point of effectively being a hit to kill interceptor. Here are my sources http://www.nuclearabms.info/Spartan.html http://www.nuclearabms.info/Sprint.html http://srmsc.org/mis2020.html http://srmsc.org/mis2010.html

Also could this be ported over to DB3000 as a hypothetical facility?

Thanks!

I concur with Crazy Ivan's Sprint & Spartan inputs. I've been working on them too. His performance figures are good. I can re-edit and give you my sensor & facilities information (both real & hypothetical) in the next week or two. Making them "hypothetical" in DB3000 is a good idea.

Hi Paul

Thanks for adding the Skybolt, but there are still a few issues.
The AGM-48 is still set as a cruise missile at 1400 m, and the GAM-87 is a set at a cruise altitude of 61000m.

Thanks to considering this.

A couple of fuel-related issues with CWDB 470. First, from the tech forum, an issue with the B-29/B-50:
I have just observed that the B-29 superfortress only have a paltry 1365kg of fuel which makes them declare BINGO four minutes after takeoff (thats how I discovered the issue). Per comparison a B-17 medium bomber carres a little more than 10000kg.

The problem affects ALL the superfortress variants in the DB including the B-50s but not the KB-50s which carry more than 65000kg of fuel, as I suppose it should be, and all the Tu-4 Bull variants.

Playing with 972.13 CWDB 470

Ancalagon
Next, the LSD mismatch noted back in February and fixed has come back in the latest CWDB, at least with respect to the Thomaston class in NI's Deliverance.
