January 23, 201214 yr Some thoughts... I'm assuming one reason for holding off on adding actual boarding parties is that, in theory, they should not do damage but cause a vessel to change from Hostile to Friendly (i.e., capture it). I imagine this is probably a major headache to program and probably a lot more difficult than simply making a few additions or changes to the database. The HH-60G, HH-60J, and HH-65 all appear to have a 7.62 machine gun. Is there a way to give them a "door gunner" loadout, like the CSAR version of the Cougar? Perhaps in addition to a boarding party, helicopters used for law enforcement might have a Law Enforcement Team loadout that could "destroy" a target, but could only be used against INF (infantry) targets (e.g., Cartel Gunmen). This shouldn't be too hard to implement. Anyway, just a couple of ideas. Mark ANW HUD-4 v1.1 beta 7

Mark ANW HUD-4 v1.1 beta 7 A quick follow-up...at the very least, Marines and SEAL units can be added (and Ranger squads, along with platoons); while I'm sure they are used to capture ships, there are enough missions where they simply destroy a target that there is no reason not to use them right now. I suspect one limitation would be that, from aircraft, they have to be deployed at Low or Very Low altitudes? But that shouldn't be too hard to program into the database, would it?
