Hi CH, even after your last update the missile problem has not been resolved, they keep going up and down Type 055 HHQ-9B missile.

 

I haven't released the fix update for the China pack yet.

Sorry, I got confused with the Russia package.

Hey currenthill, I love your mods, even though its primarily a flight game, your ships bring modern naval combat into dcs, I noticed you added liveries to the Type 45 Destroyer a while ago, it's really cool seeing ships from my country in game, even though I have yet to see a Type 45 in real life in my towns dock area, (we just keep seeing the older type 23 frigate, always thought it was strange it had no Phalanx CIWS).

Correct. The US asset pack was updated the 15th. And as mentioned above, besides the announcement I make here in the thread, always check my website. You have the release log on the landing page as well as a detailed changelog per country (if you click on a country at the top).

The SM-3 weren't affected by the DCS update issue.

they appear affected to me. not the same way as TVC missiles but something is wrong with their guidance as they cant intercept SCUDs anymore

 

so ig i'm just trying to figure out if this is a problem on my end or not

Strange. I just ran a simple test mission with the Arleigh Burke Flight III using SM-3 against four incoming SCUDs. Worked just fine for me.

i'll check again this weekend but what happened to the missiles is that they lofted above the missile and then couldn't turn back down again to hit it

None of that happened to me as they all hit the incoming SCUDs.

Try the mission when you get the chance.

What the fu*k you mean by balance? This is a sim theres no balance and everyone knows that

Blimey, who nicked the jam out of your doughnut? If CH released a modern Typhoon, that would be mega but would also create an unballance due to the advantages it has over the in-game Gen 4 fighters. Thats what the guy means.

Do you mean you can't fire them if you take control of the assets? If so, that's correct. DCS doesn't allow me to implement more advanced radars (with separate channels etc) and still retain the feature to manually fire them. And since I primarily make AI assets I chose to have the more advanced radars. 

Ah, I see.

Hey CH!

Any chance we could see a MIM-14 Nike in the future? Ever thought about it?

This would be an interesting addition although Currenthill focuses on modern military equipment (late 20th century onwards).

I did this for CH in an attempt to capture his frustrations with ED's last update in a MOD. And yes they were actually crazy enough to put nuclear armed SAMs on ships back in the day

I mean the AIR-2 Genie was a thing - a nuclear-tipped unguided air-launched rocket for wiping out large Soviet bomber formations.

Interesting concept!

RIM-2 Terrier had a W45 warhead set to 1 kt.

It was believed that this was the optimal power for hitting group targets, preventing strong radar flare. Let's calculate the correct damage radius. It is known that there was a test of 10 kiloton warhead in the USSR. The radius of destruction was approximately 1000 - 1500 meters. Aircrafts within a radius of 1000 meters received fatal damage - their wing consoles broke off.

Generally accepted rule for nuclear explosions says: the radius of damage varies approximately as the square root of the power of the explosion. Accordingly, solving the proportion, we get a destruction radius for a 1 kiloton warhead of about 300 meters.

Ah there you go. I had a doubt but I had to ask

i was just thinking about it yesterday because I believe it might be an interesting cold war addition as it’s something similar to the SA2-SA5 systems

Take a look at this site. While it's meant for land targets it does have an airburst option. It shows moderate blast damage out to 1500 meters for a 1Kt warhead.

But this was not meant to be realistic. Was just curious if something like this could be done in DCS

A special thanks goes out to @daskjdhjah for a tremendous testing effort!

So good you keep on udating these!

One question :  what you mean by "You apply it by overwriting your 1.1.x installation"? Means I have to overwrite the update over the "older" version so that it just replaces the needed files? 

EDIT : I did as you said (replace file in the "bigger" folder but I got the error message : The following DLCs are not authorized"... Any help please? Thanks
