RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
Dragon029 - thanks for the informative response. Based on what you know, how does my proposed payload sound?
RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
They look good except I'd add the gun pod for the F-35B/C whenever a payload features external weapons and the #3 payload (GBU-32 1000lb JDAMs internal) would be F-35B/C only.
I'd also add the following:
7. 4x AMRAAM (int), 2x AIM-9X (ext) (all 3 variants, gun pod included for B/C variants, this would just be a 'heavy CAP' style loadout).
8. 8x GBU-39, 2x AMRAAM (F-35A only)
9. 2x JSOW, 2x AMRAAM (F-35C only)
Also, while there's attention on the F-35, any chance we could get the radar fixed at the same time? I talked about my concerns and suggestions about many of the AESAs on CMANO having odd performance figures back on page 114 (just ctrl+f Dragon029).

RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
Have made some database mods.
First, I've destroyed the F-35 [8D]
The initial version only uses internal JDAMs, and also has external loadouts for GBU-12s and Paveway IVs. No external AMRAAMs etc. All fancy loadouts including Meteor have been moved to 2025 variant.
Updated Meteor in-service date on Typhoon. It is still not operational, IOC is expected early 2018 along with Storm Shadow.
Added F/A-18 loadouts:

Updated AARGM to engage ships and land units. Land units are set to 'Do not engage' in WRA, but can be changed through doctrine window or by firing weapon manually.

RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
Thanks yourself! By the way, will you still have the GBU-39 on the [non-2025] F-35A? I feel that's one of its most useful loadouts and is very much confirmed to be a Block 3F loadout [there's even some footage here at 2:30 of it ripple-launching a pair of SDBs]

RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
According this text, the characteristic of a radar "max range" is a range of detection target with RCS 1 sq.m ?
RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
ORIGINAL: Dimitris
ORIGINAL: TheOttoman
To which I have seen no answer for.ORIGINAL: SlabSheetrock
These are both extremely important questions to ask.
We are aware that the current process is not as optimal as it can be. Part of the reason that the rate of DB updates has been reduced lately is that we are working on a number of initiatives that will hopefully enable greater agility, scalability and transparency.
These efforts will require some time to bear fruit, but we think that the end state will satisfy those aims.
Thank you for your patience and support as we make this complex transition.
Oh Heavens, please don't think I'm not happy! I'm really enjoying the game, I just wanted to know where the list of things that are being worked on is.
I requested that Pacific 24 be added to the boats database a couple of posts back. I just wanted to see if it made it onto the list of additions.
RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
That is correct; I know some manufacturers will also specify things like ranges against naval targets (which due to their size typically exceed air-to-air range figures), and some radar manufacturers will specify targets of 3m^2 or 5m^2, but at least with American / most western manufacturers, 1m^2, nose-on is the standard for 'max range' detection figures.ORIGINAL: FilitchAccording this text, the characteristic of a radar "max range" is a range of detection target with RCS 1 sq.m ?
RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
Sorry, I mean characteristic of radar in CMANO database.ORIGINAL: Dragon029

RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues
That's a good question / something I forgot about - based on testing it's a sensor's absolute max range - I ran a quick test then and B-52s with a frontal RCS of 107.2m^2 were routinely detected at just under 120nmi (117, 118, 119, etc), F-15As (5.8m^2) were detected only marginally closer at 116, 117nmi and F-16Cs (2.2m^2) were repeatedly detected at just under 90nmi (87, 88, 89, etc).
Ideally (at least with modern radars), the max range figures being listed here would be something like an average (max) detection range for a given RCS (as mentioned, with 1m^2 being common when not otherwise specified); if the devs were to adopt this, I'd be in favour of the range rings remaining as they are, or if they want to do the work, having them change in radius based on the RCS of either a selected unit or the largest RCS unit for that detection type (air / surface).
Targets with a larger RCS would be able to be detected at further ranges, until either the radar horizon kicks in (when the Earth itself prevents your S-band, X-band, etc emissions from reaching the target), or (for older / less advanced radars / radars operating on certain modes) until the pulse repetition frequency of the radar limits your ability to listen to a return signal (because if your pulses look the same, you can't be sure if a returning pulse is from a target you hit really far away, or a target really close). It's my understanding however that modern radars that frequency hop or apply unique waveforms / modulation to each pulse are able to overcome that latter limit, because you don't have to worry about confusing pulses from far / close targets.
Still, for now I'm just happy to see my proposed radar changes get implemented and for that other stuff (which IIRC has been mentioned by the devs as potentially a roadmap item) to get dealt with when the time is right.

RE: Stickied thread for minor database issues?
Also the database doesn't include the naval versions of F-15 (F-15N-phx Sea Eagle) . It is basically the carrier capable version of the F-15C.

While we are talking about radars, I'll take this moment to post the link to the Electronic Warfare and Radar Systems Handbook (4th edition, dated 2013), available from the DoD's Defence Technical Information Center website. With all this talk of reviewing radar performance, it may come in handy!

The Tuzla class units feature 10 water and gas tight compartments with structural fire protection consisting of fire retarding and insulating materials and fire alarm system that automatically governs the ventilating system. The units damage control equipment consist of firefighting pumps, fire and smoke sensors, bilge water level sensors, fixed pressurized water/foam FM-20 fire extinguishing systems, and remotely activated sprinkler systems in machinery room. All damage control activities can be monitored by a CCTV system in machine control room and a on the bridge.
The tender for the NTPB units included a range of specific performance parameters. Seakeeping and stability requirements set by the Turkish Navy prescribed the boats to be capable of conducting all tasks up to SS+(2.5 waves) and key surveillance task up to SS5(4 waves). Another requirement set by the Turkish Navy was to minimize crew numbers and reduce maintenance wherever possible. The result is high level of automation allowing the patrol boats to be operated with a crew of just 34.Their Platform Management System(PMS) integrates the control of all platform machinery, electrical power generation distribution and supporting systems. A comprehensive range of user interfaces monitor the propulsion plant, damage control, and closure state. Sensors, actuators, and integrated closed-circuit digital TV system provide a flexible and effective approach for data acquisition and control. An integrated bridge systems offers embedded functionality for bridge and deck operations, allowing the boat to be manned by single watch officer and two other crew members on bridge during transit cruising.
Main ASuW armament is made up to a single Oto Melara twin 40/L70 Compact 40mm gun offering a fire rate of 4,500rpm and range of 8.6 km (4,6nm). Soft-kill defence is provide by two 12.7mm STAMP (Stabilized Automatic Machine Gun Platform) remotely controlled machine guns from Aselsan. Capable of firing 200rds/min of conventional ammunition and featuring automatic target tracking and ballistic calculation, these guns are quite effective against asymmetric threats. The ASW suite consist of two rails for depth charges and two Roketsan ASRLS six barreled anti-submarine rocket launchers fitted in the stern area.
The CIC features five multifunction consoles: one of the STAMP machine guns, one TASK-40 for Oto Melara gun, one of the Simrad SP92 MkII sonar, one of the Raytheon radar and one of for the ASRLS rocket launcher.
Aselsan also provided its ASELFLIR 300D EO director and fire control system capable of determining, identifying and tricking high speed targets on the sea surface, in the air and on land. It tracks up to six targets simultaneously. Aselsan was also responsible for an integrated communication system providing both internal and external communication capabilities. It includes wideband radios, commercial SATCOM equipment, as well as secure open voice and data communications.
Havelsan supplied message handling systems, two HF transceivers, two LF/HF receivers, two Duplex HF Data modems, and two VHF/UHF transceivers with Have Quick II for integration of navigation, communications, C2 and weapons into boats combat system.
Yaltes provides the operator consoles and tactical bridge display units and the Kongsberk Maritime delivered the Simrad SP92 MkII hull-mounted multi-frequency sonar. It is designed for detection of weak and scattered targets, is capable of operating in 11 different frequencies, and has detection range of more than 3,000m
Raytheon’s surface search radar ensures safe navigation and detection of surface targets at close range. Other sensors include the IFF Mod4, a Ship Information Transmitting System (GBDS) and the TB-SH under water phone.
The ‘Tuzla’ class is powered by two Tognum MTU 16V 4000 M90 diesel engines with 7300hp, and two MTU diesel generators with total power of 520hp.The boats can remain on station for up to 14 days, and the on-board fuel capacity provides an operational range in excess of 2,000nm(3,700km) at 12 knots. Low noise level drive fixed-pitch propellers delivered by Otto Piening GmbH along twin shafts enable the boats a maximum design speed of 25 knots.

The Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) is retiring its 9K33 Osa (SA-8 ‘Gecko’) mobile surface-to-air missile systems as part of its on-going reorganisation, a Jordanian military source has confirmed to Jane’s .
The JAF announced on its website in late September that it was offering 52 Osas for sale. The source said five countries and companies have expressed interest in purchasing the systems, including the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, and a US company. Both Poland and Ukraine are still Osa operators, but the Czechs retired theirs in 2006.
The JAF was considering contracting Belarus to upgrade its Osas, but decided to abandon the modernisation programme as it was unable to find the required money, the source said.

The Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) is retiring its 9K33 Osa (SA-8 ‘Gecko’) mobile surface-to-air missile systems as part of its on-going reorganisation, a Jordanian military source has confirmed to Jane’s .
The JAF announced on its website in late September that it was offering 52 Osas for sale. The source said five countries and companies have expressed interest in purchasing the systems, including the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, and a US company. Both Poland and Ukraine are still Osa operators, but the Czechs retired theirs in 2006.
The JAF was considering contracting Belarus to upgrade its Osas, but decided to abandon the modernisation programme as it was unable to find the required money, the source said.

Sabra Mk.II / M60T
Unlike the Mk.I which used a low-profile commander's cupola, the Mk.II retained the larger M60 Patton style M19 cupola with the M85 12.7 mm machine gun found on the M60s in Turkish service. This version would also include a Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer (CITV). The Mk.II also uses a more powerful MTU Friedrichshafen engine built under license in Turkey (MTU Turk A.S.), and a Renk transmission with four forward and two reverse gears. The Mk.II is also equipped with explosive reactive armor.[1] The tanks were upgraded by the Turkish military's 2nd Main Maintenance Center with Israeli cooperation. All the systems except the armor package were built under license with technology transfer in Turkey. Sabra can carry 500 litres of diesel fuel.

http://www.military-today.com/artillery ... akarya.htm
There are two packs of 122-mm launch tubes. Each pack contains 20 launch tubes. The launcher is hydraulically traversed and elevated. The T-122 Sakarya fires rockets indigenously developed and manufactured by MKEK and Roketsan. The system is also compatible with 122-mm rockets of the BM-21 Grad and similar systems. Rockets are fitted with HE-FRAG and cluster warheads. The last mentioned contains anti-personnel or anti-tank submunitions. Maximum range of fire with extended-range rockets is up to 40 km.

RE: Stickied thread for minor database issues?
Request to add the PLA naval aviation's H-6KH anti ship missile bomber, due to the reveal of the first real picture:
First image of the PLANAF H-6KH naval bomber.
Notice the H-6K in the background and its characteristic pointy nose (albeit covered), as well as at least two long YJ-12 compatible hardpoints visible on the wing.
Earlier official scale models released show that the PLANAF H-6KH is roughly similar with the PLAAF H-6K, except with additional wing and fuselage hardpoints and the capability to carry heavy AShMs.
From the model, we see the capability to carry up to six YJ-12 (3 per wing, just like the standard H-6K that could carry six CJ-10 ALCMs) and additional two ECM pods on the two new secondary hardpoints near the wingtip. One another hardpoint attached on the rear fuselage carries a datalink pod for the YJ-12s.

Chinese military aviation blog reports:
http://chinese-military-aviation.blogsp ... craft.htmlIt was rumored in February 2017 that an AShM carrier variant of H-6K (H-6KH?) is under development for PLAN. A prototype reportedly already flew in 2014. It is armed with up to 6 YJ-12 AShMs and expected to replace the old H-6G. A recent satellite image (May 2015) indicated that one H-6K (H-6KH?) was carrying additional ECM pods (KG600/800?) underneath the outer wings.

Based on this article, quoted in the link, is it possible to get an air-launched boost-phase interceptor?

RE: Stickied thread for minor database issues?
Request China - People's Armed Police (2018, post-reform) to be added in DB3000 as a proper military unit, not civil servants. PAP is right now administrated by CMC as President Xi mandated, exactly to be militarized.

Thanks yourself! By the way, will you still have the GBU-39 on the [non-2025] F-35A? I feel that's one of its most useful loadouts and is very much confirmed to be a Block 3F loadout [there's even some footage here at 2:30 of it ripple-launching a pair of SDBs]
Yes, none of the loadouts on the 2025 variant have been deleted.
