Think you need fc and air detection radar added to sensors
So
Add 1760 STIR- ESSM +2MR, Adelaide + Nansen, Mk92 Mod 12....

Add some sort of air detection radar

Ex. 2674 AN/SPS-49

Add Correct missile mount (weapons's dialog)

ex. 624 Mk41 VLS [8 cells]

etc.

Curious. I've got an SPS-77, SPS-49, a STIR and a Mk92 with a 48-cell Mk41 (and 24 ESSM) and I'm still getting the 'Unable to connect to firing unit with mandatory datalink' message in the manual fire dialog.

Yeah. Probably keep the NSA from reading our emails too as it is creepy.

I would just like to take this opportunity to apologize to the families of any brave NSA officers who died of boredom while listening in on my phone calls. Because I am quite sure that would be the outcome if anyone had to listen in on hours and hours of my daily routine.

Try mount 1663 Mk29 Sea Sparrow -ESSM, Add sensors: 1024 Mk95 (not 3746) and a search radar AN/SPS-48E.

This should work

Couple of database requests:

Looking for a roughly 2018 3.2B F-22 Raptor which will highly likely have full Block 2 AIM-9X with HMD capabilities http://news.usni.org/2014/05/16/air-for ... 22-raptor/
Also looking for roughly 2022 F-35A and F-22 with GBU-53/B SDB II, as well as a roughly 2019 US Navy Super Hornet with SDB II capability http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/ray ... ion-06510/

(and probably also integration on F-16 and other platforms around the 2020 mark)

My thanks will be great as always

Yeah you'll have to use a non-AEGIS version of the ESSM as those require a free datalink channel to fire, alternatively add an AEGIS datalink through the SBR script (INI file). No GUI for that yet, sorry!

Noticed that the F-16 and the F-15E are unable to carry the JSOW by default and that conversely legacy Hornets and Superhornets are unable to carry MALDs. Can this be rectified in an update of the database?

The USAF never really used the JSOW. They bought a handful which they passed on to the Navy.

Will take another look at the MALD when we get back, thanks [8D]

Also added request for F-22 and F-35, thanks! [8D]

The Whiskey class submarines in the database have a Trout Cheek [MG-10 Feniks] listed as active only search. I believe that should be passive only. Notoriously hard to find online sources but FWIW here is one: http://www.harpoondatabases.com/Encyclo ... y1945.aspx

Also, makes little sense for a submarine to not have any passive sonar.

Could we add these Canadian Halifax class updates ?

Bad news, the secondary guns on DDG-1000 will probably be downgraded from 57mm MK110 to 30mm MK46. It's a pretty risky decision consider the little capability the MK46 has as a CIWS gun. Anyways, the change will need to be reflected in the database.

And may I remind your guys that the AAQ-37 EO DAS is still non functional due to the lack of IRdetection/classification zoom(while having optical zoom although the sensor operates in IR band).

The CWDB already includes two British 'what if' ships that I'd like to include in a Falklands scenario.  Can these be copied over to the DB3000? (unless there is a way that I don't know about for using the data from both DBs in a single scenario)
 
The ships are:
Type 43 Destroyer
R01 Queen Elizabeth CVA-01
could you also add 
R08 Ark Royal (Audacious not Invincible flavour)
Also need the Royal Navy's 1978 fixed wing airgroup of Phantom FG.1/2, Gannet AEW.3 & COD.4 and Buccaneer S.2 for the airgroup. 
 
Is it also possible to add:
 
K08 RFA Engadine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RFA_Engadine_(K08))
K07 HMS Challenger  (http://www.clydesite.co.uk/clydebuilt/viewship.asp?id=19388)
 

Helicopter carrier Moskva has two SAN-3 magazines with 44 goblets each... Wiki and old harpoon says 22 missiles per launcher?


Also I made a request on the CWDB thread RE: Argentine A4 loadouts...do I need to put that here as well?

Hey guys, just bringing to your attention that the Italian FREMM Carlo Bergamini (F 590) is of the "general purpose" version and not ASW, as it was the first FREMM built I'm a bit suprised to only see the ASW version in the database whilst the first ship of the latter version was built later on.

Still regarding the Italian FREMMs (both versions), they decided in the end to equip them with "Sylver VLS A-50" cells and not "Sylver VLS A-43" making them able to hold both Aster 15&30 and not only the first one as it seems to me it's in the DB for now.

Thanks for you time, keep up the great work !

Cheers

When possible, please add...

Pakistan operates quite a few of these. Other countries seem interested in buying some.

Thanks for considering this one.

I also noticed that the Italian FREMM "ASW" currently present on the DB has: 1x OTOmelara 76mm
1x OTOmelara 127mm

Those are the armaments of the the "general Purpose" version, the ASW should have 2x OTO Melara 76mm cannons.
