The KSS-III submarine, also classified as the Dosan Ahn Changho-class submarines - is a series of diesel-electric attack submarines currently being built for the Republic of Korea Navy (ROKN), jointly by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI). The KSS-III is the final phase of the Korean Attack Submarine program, a three-phased program to build 27 attack submarines for the ROKN, between 1994–2029. The KSS-III initiative consists of the development of nine diesel-electric attack submarines, capable of firing submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM), to be built in three batches. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KSS-III_submarine View full record

In 2015 the Japanese defense budget allocated funds to study the construction of a new "compact-type hull destroyer with additional multi-functional capabilities" as well as a new radar system for the destroyer. In the same year Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) unveiled the frigate's first concept model (30FF) which they had been developing with their own funds. The new ship is set to replace the Asagiri-class destroyers and Abukuma-class destroyer escorts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mogami-class_frigate View full record

The Maya class of guided missile destroyers (まや型護衛艦, Maya-gata Goeikan) in the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force is a modified version of the Atago class, with an updated Aegis Combat System and electric propulsion system. Maya was commissioned on March 19, 2020. Haguro was commissioned on March 19, 2021. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya-class_destroyer View full record

JS Taigei (SS-513) is the first boat of the Taigei-class attack submarine of Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. The submarine was ordered from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in 2017 and laid down on 16 March 2018 at Kobe, Japan. Taigei was launched on 14 October 2020 and commissioned on 9 March 2022. The hull design of the Taigei class is said to not differ too much from the operational Sōryū class but will be 100 tons heavier than its predecessor. However, the Taigei-class submarines will be more advanced as they are equipped with newer equipment such as sonar systems, snorkel power generation system. The Taigei class will use lithium-ion batteries much like JS Ōryū and JS Tōryū of the Sōryū-class submarines.[2] The submarine will likely use the Type 18 torpedo, which project name as "G-RX6".[3][4] In addition, in response to the lifting of restrictions on the placement of female SDF personnel on submarines, the work of female SDF personnel is being supported by establishing partitions in the living quarters and securing bedrooms for women. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taigei-class_submarine View full record

he PL-21 is an active radar-guided long range beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile developed by the People's Republic of China. It is considered comparable to the American AIM-120 AMRAAM, DARPA's Triple Threat Terminator (T3), Europe's MBDA's Meteor and the Russian R-77. In 2016, China successfully test fired a very long range air-to-air missile, which was believed to be the PL-21.[6] PL-21 is estimated to have a range of over 300 kilometers and powered by a ramjet engine.

A proposed fix for this issue is in the process of testing. So far the testing has been positive and it appears that the issue may be resolved. Testing will continue.

When splitting air group DZA. There were 10, 3 plane sections to make the group. When splitting all 10, 3 plane sections at 1 time the error occurred. Attached is a saved game before the groups were split. I don't remember if ti was as I was splitting the groups or when the GE created the individual groups. Attached is the latest copy of my db. HCEEFDB-220731.zip Run Time Error.zip

During aircraft operations TonyD and I are receiving this message. If you ignore the message the GE doesn't crash. TonyD found that it occurs with multiple db's. At this point neither TonyD or I have found it affects game play.

The Northrop Grumman RQ-180 is an American stealth unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) surveillance aircraft intended for contested airspace. As of 2019, there had been no images or statements released, but growing evidence points to the existence of the RQ-180 and its use in regular front-line service. After the retirement of the SR-71 Blackbird in 1999, the US Air Force lacked an intelligence platform capable of penetrating airspace guarded by advanced air defense systems. The RQ-180 was designed to fulfill the mission previously accomplished by the high-speed SR-71. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman_RQ-180 https://theaviationgeekclub.com/427th-reconnaissance-squadron-is-operating-the-rq-180-uas-aviation-week-says/ View full record

South Korean fighter aircraft development program, with Indonesian involvement, with the goal of producing an advanced multirole fighter for the South Korean and Indonesian air forces. The airframe is stealthier than any fourth-generation fighters, but does not carry weapons in internal bays like fifth-generation fighters, though internal bays may be introduced later in development. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KAI_KF-21_Boramae https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/south-koreas-kf-21-homegrown-advanced-fighter-just-took-to-the-air View full record

Don, I have played around with gun fire quite a bit in my scenario. Mainly because I like big guns! As a teen I read a lot of books on the naval battles in the Pacific during WWII. What I found out over time is that it takes about 3 of my 16in rounds to sink a destroyer/cruiser type ship. When I use guns the ai may select 30 or more rounds for the target. I know that it only takes 3. TonyE noticed that in the HC code that it looks at gun rounds like it does missiles. It adds missiles to compensates for them getting shot down on the way to the target. It was adding rounds to the gun for the same reason. One of the other things that drives me crazy is that if there are multiple targets in a group the ai selects ammo from the same mount until it runs out regardless of the mounts rate of fire. I wondered if the problem was because my 16in guns have 3 barrels so I tried the same thing with my EM rail guns with a single barrel and had the same results. I have to manually delete rounds form each target and then individually select the mount, the ship and and how many rounds based on their rate of fire of each gun mount. In my scenario I wind up doing the same for missiles when attacking a target. I know it takes: FF/FFG 15 to 20 missiles DD/DDG 20 to 25 CG 30 to 35 BCGN 40 to 45 CV/CVN 50 to 60 Land targets usually around 40. Again the ai selects a ships missiles until the mount is empty and then moves to the next mount or next ship. I found having missiles fired from different mounts 20 from one mount and 10 form another mount to make 30. The 30/20 combination to make 50 has a much higher probability of getting shot down than 50 missiles coming from 1 mount. I discovered this while playing a scenario in HDS9-10 with Harpoons and B-52's. Almost the same rates applied in that edited stock scenario I created and played for many years. I never played around with gum in that scenario. The HDS9-10 scenario is how I got started with TonyE. I had more than 128 ships/subs/helo's in my group. The GE kept crashing on me. I contacted Matrix games about the crash and TonyE replied! The rest is history. In the end the GE saw the helo I was trying to launch off my FF or DD as a submarine. I got a good laugh visualizing that happening. I was on a Knox class FF when I was in the Navy.

No problem. It's not a show stopper!

Snake Island is located 35 km from the coast, east of the mouth of the Danube River. The island's coordinates are 45°15′N 30°12′E.

The island does not have a prominently featured mountain, but rather a low-slope hill. Snake Island is the Island that the Ukrainians defending the is sent the Russian commander who asked them to surrender and got a very well known message in return. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_Island_during_the_2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine View full record

Confirmed! Ralf initially brought TonyD's and my attention to this issue. We tried different things and came to the same conclusion that Ralf did. The issue seems to occur with HCDB2.

The ASRAAM (Advanced Short Range Air-to-Air Missile), also known in US as the AIM-132, is a highly maneuverable heat-seeking short-range air-to-air missile produced by the United Kingdom’s MBDA corporation. It was developed in order to replace the aging AIM-9 Sidewinder. The ASRAAM entered service in 1998 and has since been deployed in at least one conflict. The ASRAAM’s effective 10 kg high-explosive fragmentation warhead can be triggered by either a proximity fuse or impact. It has a longer range and more powerful warhead than the US Sidewinder missile. It can be used on the F/A-18, Eurofighter, Typhoon, F-35. The ASRAAM can be used on any aircraft that can also operate the AIM-9. http://www.military-today.com/missiles/asraam.htm View full record
