Cik Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 US needs addition of: arleigh burke VLS ohio-class SSGN SM3/6 for arleigh, ticonderoga etc. (in general modeling of surface escorts is very old and out of date. if the focus is going to shift to some sort of naval arena with the release of the hornet they could do with updating in general) Iran needs addition of: F-14 F-4E mig-23(?) HQ-whatever SA-2 SA3/5/4/etc ballistic missiles (SCUD, FROG, whatever newer ones they've developed) STYX (TEL-mounted/ship mounted anti-ship missile) various boats (ASHM carriers mostly) in general blue needs "strategic" assets to hunt desperately. as it is fragging tanks is unlikely to have any real effect on a campaign level, it's likely to be an engagement between these "high level" mid-range assets which players would need to thin out before any sort of "re-opening" of the PG would be possible in some sort of hypothetical FON op. if all iran has is conventional artillery (without range or accuracy to really do any damage to anything that matters) it's hard to make a credible campaign out of this map, and while the SAMs are sufficient ATM to make something threatening (assuming S-300 with clever placement) it's still missing some stuff. ATM: iranstuff: SAMs: OK to good "strategic assets" (BM, CM, ASHM) essentially nonexistent planes: missing F-14, otherwise not terrible. for US naval escorts are junk but everything else is mostly OK. naval escorts need lots of new ships including SSGN and modern escorts, as well as new missile types.
