Hello, I am surprise of the max range of the 3M14T Kalibr this SLCM should be 1600 Km to 2600 Km and not 800 Km. i am wrong ?

In Wikipedia says efective range is 2000km so I think you aren't wrong.

It's very close.

Greetings! Excuse my ignorance: how do you install the Admiral Kasatonov mod? I tried to install it in the suggested directory (f:\DCS World Open Beta\Mods\tech\Admiral Kasatonov), but the running game disables the mod.

Install it in your saved games DCS folder.

How to choose only 3M-54 for attack in mission editior and why 3M-54 and P-800 start always to rigth side and then turn to left?

There are limitations to what can be achieved within the limits of DCS and naval assets.

@currenthillanother roughly related question.. have been always intrigued whether firing rockets was possible from ships.. I mean the Salvo fired rockets like those from land based grad or mlrs.. can we setup those on ships in dcs ? Many of these Russian ships have rockets in real life.

Can't see why that shouldn't be possible. But with the modern ships I'm making I haven't encountered the need yet. I wish ED would implement ship based chaff in the future though. 

Also, I've added the two loadout versions of the Karakurt, one with LACM and one with AShMs. And the 34M54T is upgraded to perform more like the real deal, which means much higher speed.

Agree much to the shipborne countermeasures that's something that's missing now in dcs. Same goes for land vehicles.

Nice to see 2 configurations of Karakurt. Thank you.

For future updates: when looking in Karakurt windows from outside view, there are no internal textures for the back of the cabin

[Arrow11]

Wonderful mod! Loved every bit of detail. The bridge interior textures might need some work although without that also it's excellent. Setup a naval battle and was awestruck to see the missiles flyby. Also need more liveries for multiple ships Only found time for very few screenshots.

Love it! Thanks for the screenshots! I love to see the assets in action.

I definitely add all the suggestions for improvements to my list. I try to release a good enough 1.0.0 and then together with the public make necessary improvements for the next release.

I noticed that now the fleet of both sides has a very powerful air defense. In order to defeat even one ship, you need to use a large detachment of forces simultaneously attacking the ship, or attack until the air defense ammunition is depleted.

This is ineffective, but there are no jammers and high-speed weapons in the DCS that could break through the air defense.

Therefore, I propose to develop high-speed or stealth missiles for the red and blue fleets and naval airforces: Zircon, LRASM, NSM, YJ-21

Yep, I agree. I may have things in the works... 

Besides that, the next update of the russian ships will get an antiship missile update. Both the 3M54T and the P-800 are using one of my older missile implementations and will be upgraded to reflect their actual speed (> M2).

[DM1968]

Bonsoir, superbe MOD ! si possible revoir également la portée du missile 3M14T.

[ghostmike]

A very nice MOD, thank you.

Fantastic work @currenthill, these assets are awesome. I have noticed a bit of a discrepancy between the Kalibr AShM on the Karakut Class Corvette and the Admiral Gorshkov. The Kalibrs on the Karakut Class accelerate the entire way to the target, reaching nearly Mach 3, while the Kalibrs from the Gorshkow cruise at around Mach 1.5. The land attack variant of the Kalibrs cruise at around Mach 0.8. I had assumed that all three variants would travel at the same speed, but I could be wrong. 

Here's an attached tacview file from my experience:

Good eye! You are completely correct. The Gorshkov's anti ship missiles will be updated to the latest standard as per the Karakurt. I had them configured to slow on the Gorshkov.

This will be fixed in the next Gorshkov release.

[currenthill]

I noticed an error in the Karakurt, the MG soldier doesn't seem to animate correctly.  This will be fixed in the next release. This is how it should look.
