I'm happy with the planes.

I received a clarification about the FRAM II from Larry Bond. It was listed as 4 box launchers for the SM1MR, but had 2 missiles each. Larry says that is a typo, so there is only 1 missile for each box with no at-sea reloads.

So 4 missiles total? Does the same apply to the Battle?

 

We have three options then; none of them great. Our best option is probably the FRAM as it has the chopper and the best guns; but there are arguments for all the bigger ships.

 

I wish to take the Combattantes BTW.

I sent another email to Larry, but I suspect the same holds true for the Ex-UK Battle class.

Huh

 

I wonder where Larry gets his info from because that link I posted earlier in this thread quite clearly explains that the Iranian Sumners had reloads for their four Standard launchers. Once the single reload was gone though it was back to port for any more. It even has photos showing them.

I didn't see your link about the Sumners earlier. I just sent it to Larry to see what he thinks. I think we should consider the Sumner and Battle classes to have one manual reload for each box launcher.

OK, let us know about the ruling please.

Are you guys settled on a Sumner and two Combattantes?

Gentlemen ,

 

I am no longer interested in joining your game or any future games of Harpoon 4.

 

Thanks for the opportunity for to play a new version of Harpoon 4.

 

Respectfully,

Eric

SHUK, do you know anyone that would be interested in playing Red side? Or, will you be able to handle all three ships?

Not off the top of my head. I can handle all three ships if need be and I think those choices (Sumner and two Combattantes) will the ones we go for.

Pity we lost other captain but I think we're ready to go now.

I am ready as well.

Ok. What formation would you like for the ships? They will start just south of Bandar Bushehr.

 

All aircraft will start at Shiraz Airbase on Alert+15.

Launch P3. Climb to High altitude while proceeding on course 247 degrees to the coast. Keep radars off until feet wet. Listening on ESM.

 

Ready Phantoms so they are at +5 armed as discussed earlier with 6 Mk83 thousand pound bombs, 2 AIM7F, and a 1st Gen jammer pod.
