Minor (but annoying) database text issues

A few minor issues that should be fixed when possible...

 

BCVN North Carolina (both versions) <-- the text appearing is for another hypothetical class, the BCGN Alaska. I don't know if an actual description for this fictional class is available, so it may have to be changed to "Descriptive text is not available."

 

DDGH Kimmel Flight III <-- For some reason, the text for the 550 Cavour appears. This can be changed to the text for the Flight II Kimmel: "Fictional platform. Improved version of the Kimmel destroyer class."

 

F 100 Grenade [Type 25] [#] <-- the text appearing is for the 365 KRI Diponegoro; it appears to be a fictional European frigate class, possibly British, but I'm not sure, so perhaps just use "Descriptive text is not available."

Here's another one...I think I've mentioned this but I'm not sure...

 

The database lists the Skymaster as the Cessna 223 Skymaster, but as far as I can tell no such model appears to exist. I think it was supposed to be the Cessna 337 Skymaster. I'm not sure if there is anything special involved in just re-naming a database entry, as opposed to changing it; as far as I can tell, correcting the name of the platform is the only thing that has to be done.

I found another one...

 

The Project 183R [Komar] is described as a "frigate," but it is actually a small (66 tons) missile boat. I'm not sure if there is actually a description for it in the database, so it might have to use the "Descriptive text is not available" description.

And another one...

 

Project 21956 [MPS] [#] is described as a modified Udaloy, but this appears to be an error (the actual Mod. Udaloy is Project 1155.1). Again, I do not know if there is an actual description for this vessel (which appears to be the "flight II" version of a future platform for which information is limited to begin with) so we might have to just rely on the "Descriptive text is not available" description.

Found another one...

 

PGM 1 Battle Mountain Flight II (SGR) is described as "Planned but canceled class of Polish corvettes." It should probably just use the same description as the other PGM 1 Battle Mountain platform.

 

(Actually, since the Battle Mountains displace over 1,000 tons, I might change "Hypothetical patrol boat class" to "Hypothetical corvette class.")
