GumidekCZ Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 In Carrier modul description is mentioned following systems: The ship also includes a formidable air defense system that includes the RIM-7 Sea Sparrow Missile and RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) missiles, and Close-In Weapon System (CIWS) gun system.Which systems will be completed when SC released? Is there any detailed info about these systems? version of system, abilities, reload times, ranges, guidance, ext...
Harlikwin Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 Its gonna be basically like the other ships in DCS at release. Maaaybe they will get around to modeling real ship air defenses "later". New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, HP Reverb (formermly CV1) Old-N-busted: i7 4720HQ ~3.5GHZ, +32GB DDR3 + Nvidia GTX980m (4GB VRAM) :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, Rift CV1 (yes really).

Shadow KT Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 Especially the American CIWS is super bad. 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Greyman Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 Yup, the Phalanx should be pretty easy to code. Just bolt the gun from an A10C into a turret and you're sorted. :)
Diesel_Thunder Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 Yup, the Phalanx should be pretty easy to code. Just bolt the gun from an A10C into a turret and you're sorted. :) The Phalanx does not use the 30mm GAU-8 that is in the Warthog. It uses the 20mm M61 Vulcan that is found in various fighter aircraft (such as the F/A-18, F-16, F-15, F-14, F-105, etc), some AC-130 gunships, and the Army M163.

Yoda967 Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 It's not even using the right ammunition... Yup...tracers. The combat load for Vulcan Phalanx CIWS is a tungsten discarding sabot ammunition that doesn't have tracers in the mix. Back in the 80's and early 90s when I was a CIWS tech, the ball ammo we used for training had tracers every 9th round. Ball ammo wore the barrels more than the discarding sabot, but when I was on the carrier, they only let us shoot the sabot stuff once...covered the flight deck with pieces of the nylon sabots. The Air Boss "cordially" invited us to join the FOD walkdown. I can forgive them for using tracer, but was more concerned with the mount on the starboard side forward engaging incoming missiles on the port side.

GumidekCZ Posted May 15, 2020 Author Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) Will do little spam here, where questioning Razbam devs about Tarawa defence systems: What about RIM-166? When it will be included? How much targets can be engaged simultaneously? How ships AI decides about target priority (enemy aircraft and antiship missile incoming)? What type of radar guidance Phalanx (CIWS) uses? What is the reload time for all these defensive systems? What about AN/SLQ-32 and Mk53 NULKA defensive systems? So I would like to use same questions here, except the different fire control system than SSDS Mk2. Adding here question about implementation of Mark 36 Super Rapid Bloom Offboard Countermeasures Chaff and Decoy ... (abbreviated as SRBOC or "Super-arboc") Edit: Why some advanced automatic aiming systems have in lua script defined same sensor accuracy as much older or simplier systems like Shilka and Vulcan? The numbers defined there are good for these two, but we are lacking much percise sensor defined in new WSN_9 for advanced guidance systems. No wonder that Phalanx can hit cruise missile only due to HUGE bullet spread (already reported as a Bug to ED). (Chinese DEKA CAP antiship missiles not able to be destroyed by bullets now).
