Regarding the Safeguard SAM system the LIM-49 Spartan and LIM-99A Sprint missiles have a maximum target speed of 1150 kts. Too low for their ABM mission.
Also the LIM-99A Sprint has a top speed of 2300 kts. The missile's literature indicate speeds of Mach 10+.
Data from CWDB 478.

Could you please update F-86F Sabres in CW database?
-Mount was 1x12.7mm/50 M3 x 6 instead of 2x20mm Mk12 x 2.
-AN/APG-30 range was 3000 yards (not 20nm!). It is a ranging radar.
Thanks
The APG-30 range had been corrected previously but as of CWDB v478 it now has a range of 30nm.

SS-2 sibling in CWDB 478..
Think band 1 cruise speed is a typo...shows 200kts This makes it have less range which in game is 296nm or via Wiki its 325nm.
Also I think reload time should be really long as it's basically a V-2 copy. As it is now the 6 launcher battery can fire all 18 missiles in seconds.
Also the AIM-9C no director bug is back as mentioned here:

Did this get fixed?

I would like to request the Train Based Minuteman ICBM as a hypothetical platform with two variants. December 1960 plan called for 3 planned missile train squadrons, each with 10 trains carrying 3 missiles per train. Later plans called for 600 missiles to be placed in service, 450 in silos and 150 on special trains, each train carrying 5 missiles.

There is no comprehensible logic for the ranges of the P-2 Neptune aircraft family. With the exception of the mission type "Maritime Surveillance" all loudouts have a range of 900nm - no matter if the 350 USG Ferry Tank is installed or not.

The altitude Band 3 does not apply to the SP-5 Marlin aircraft family as their service ceiling is only 24000 ft. According to Wikipedia all other performance data is wrong

There should be a new runway type in the facilities DB. At least up until the sixties seaplanes and flying boats were common in many navies and air forces around the globe. Even civil airlines used them. So there should be a special seaplane runway. By nature very long, placeable only on water and usable only by seaplanes. Btw please add a seaplane ramp to let us build an appropriate seaplane station. I'm fully aware that this needs some programing in the game. But I thinks it's worth it.

Facility item #3189 - LRRP/Rangers (Long-Range Recon) Patrol (United States - 1965) is a pure infantry unit. They don't have any vehicles at hand. So a maximum speed of 30 ktn is not appropriate.
To be more precise on this: When I order an Inf unit like e. g. #18 - Inf Sec (Oberservaion Post)(Generic - 0) to move to another location via F3 it accelerates to an acceptable 5 ktn. If I do so with said #3189 it accelerates to a whopping 30 ktn. Both units max speed is given as 30 ktn which maybe is a standard value for all land units speed. But why do they behaive different?

To piggyback this request could we also gets it's companion the AU-24 Stallion?

18 production of the production model were built. 14 or 15 of which were transfered to Cambodia in 1972 and
served through 1992.

I think you mean just the reverse! (Is surprisingly twin-engined in the DB).
