a few questions about contact size

Post by snowburn »

can radar/sonar detect the size of the contact?

Cannon/AA attacks doesnt need a modifier against larger/smaller targets?

same for torpedoes/dumb bombs against small/larger ships.

can helos/escort ships use blip enhacers to enlarge their radar signature?

thanks :)

Good question on the target size modifier. I've had offshore guns miss buildings by a hundred meters, even after multiple salvos.

Is there any modifier for gunnery getting better after multiple salvos? I'm thinking the classic bracketing shots.

Okay added a request for blip enhancers although not sure these ever actually worked. Didn't Prince Andrew's helo take on this role during the Falklands?

Gun model is CEP although we should probably look at better probably once hits are made. Point added to list. (Checking with D on this btw)

Thanks!

Does the CEP gunnery model assume a zero or nominally sized target?

If yes, a gun with a 5 meter CEP would probably still hit a good size building even with a "miss."

Thanks for taking a look at these items!

Yes, target dimensions are taking into account.
