  1. Yes to the first part. Only the 2S6M and subsequent versions can engage with missiles while on the move.
  2. Non-State Groups North Caucasian conflicts are too complicated for just two coalitions, and unfortunately the non-state groups are conspicuously absent from DCS. The separatist governments (Abkhazia, South Ossetia) are the most obvious omission, but inter-governmental missions (EUMM, OSCE, UNOMIG) are missing too. Not to mention the various militant/terrorist groups in the region. The way it is now in DCS, it's pretty difficult to recreate scenarios typical of low-intensity conflicts in the North Caucasus. In real life, there are so many competing groups, and their interests are never completely aligned with NATO or Russia. At the very least, it would be helpful to have a neutral coalition and another "catch-all" insurgent faction added to DCS.
  3. The night vision color definitely changed for me, and I've never used a NV mod.
  4. I know this is being nit picky, but since ED is soliciting info on such details as belt composition, I figure I'd mention a few suspect things I've noticed about the ground vehicles in DCS: Most ATGMs (except Malyutkas) seem to travel at a constant 645 km/h. For some reason, the BMP-3 never uses the 2A70 for anything but firing the 9M117. The 2S6 engages with the 9M311 while mobile, despite manufacturer claims to the contrary.
  5. I've compiled a new spreadsheet with Russian surface ships that's similar to the earlier one I made for armored vehicles. Sources: Jane's Fighting Ships Jane's Naval Weapon Systems DCS2.zip
  6. I've compiled this spreadsheet of most of the Russian armored vehicles' armaments, munitions, rates of fire, belt composition, and a few other parameters. I'll add to it as time permits. Sources: Jane's Armour and Artillery Jane's Armour and Artillery Upgrades Jane's Ammunition Handbook Jane's Infantry Weapons Jane's Land-Based Air Defense Update 02-03-10: Now with some western vehicles. I also filled in most of the blanks on the Russian vehicles and added a few more. DCS.zip
