It would be interesting to know what inspires CH now, what military units and what era

Question with the Grisha : Does the RBU-6000 work against submarine ? I'm not sure DCS allow submarine grenades. And what about torpedo ? What are the subsystems and fonctionnal weapons on the new Grisha's model ?

As mentioned in the newsletter, it will have the more traditional ship weaponry (gun, CIWS, SAM launcher, FCRs) available at release since DCS currently doesn't really support ASW. But I believe in solid maintaining and updating of assets, to benefit from added functionality in the core platform. So you never know what'll happen in the future.

@currenthill did you see my comment re the sky sabre not launching missiles until enemy aircraft directly overhead - even when alert status set to red and roe set to free to engage ?

Thanks, I have it documented and I'll take a look.

@currenthill is it true that your mods will be included in the DCS core?

Please check the FAQ in the forum section of the DCS core Currenthill Assets Pack:

Hi CH, and thanks again for your truly excellent work! I looked for the two files to replace, but I couldn't find them... or rather, I didn't find them with the file names you attached to the post. Could you please indicate which files need to be deleted and replaced? Thanks again.

Both files are in the database\vehicles folder in the Russian asset pack folder structure. No need to rename anything, just overwrite them to replace.

Thanks for your brilliant work @currenthill!

As far as I understand the plan is to migrate all Military Assets to DCS core step by step. Will there be further update CH Military Asstes mods releases with reduced content as this will be  migrated to DCS? Will older CH Military Assets mod releases still be useable with newer DCS releases?

Please check the FAQ for more information about the DCS core CH Assets Pack: 

 

Q2: Will all the assets from the Currenthill mod packs be added to DCS?
A2: No. The library of new core assets are based off of the inventory of the Currenthill mod packs, but each asset are carefully chosen to be added to DCS. Each new core asset are implemented mostly from scratch to uphold a specific consistent standard of things like mesh and textures quality, animations, FLIR textures, LODs, destroyed models etc. 

Q6: Are the new core assets the same assets as in the Currenthill mod packs?
A6: No. The library of new core assets are based off of the inventory of the Currenthill mod packs, but each asset are carefully chosen to be added to DCS. Each new core asset are implemented mostly from scratch to uphold a specific consistent standard of things like mesh and textures quality, animations, FLIR textures, LODs, destroyed models etc. 

And with the Tiger UHT as example, there doesn't even need to be an original mod pack asset for it to be added as a DCS core asset. So there is a loose connection between the mod packs, nothing more. So the mod packs are definitely being updated. I try to maintain the assets in the mod packs so they keep working with new DCS updates. I also add new assets like the 15 new Cold War assets added to the Russian assets mod pack. With every update of the mod packs I remove any DCS core duplicate asset though. And all the assets in the mod packs and DCS core have unique names, so they won't conflict. Not even the if they are the same asset, which I haven't had the time to remove from a mod pack.

Haha, I'm actually quite into the Cold War era at the moment.

Hi! Can you add Shahed-238 (turbojet) drone and Tochka-U in the modpack in future?

 

That sounds very plausible.

I don't know if this was reported before but MTV truck is not working for FARP operations
When asking for rearming via radio menu there is no response on multiplayer.

Using M939 Heavy works.

Neptune would be neat too. Considering we don't have many anti ship ground based systems. Along with the fact its not just an anti ship missile anymore. 

[Kappa-06MHR]

Is the Rezky will have a new model too ?

«Нептун» тоже был бы неплох. Учитывая, что у нас не так много противокорабельных наземных систем. А также то, что это уже не просто противокорабельная ракета.

the idea is very interesting

Звучит очень правдоподобно.

Will it be possible to use the P-800 Oniks against ground targets in the future? And what do you think about reworking the Tu 22M3? so that its Kh-22 missiles can also be used against ground targets

Now that we get the map, it's finally time for the italians to join DCS. What do you think @currenthill?

When the CH threats file is installed. All CH objects, official and unofficial, that should be detected as threats, aren't detected at all by HTS/HARMs and only show as Unknown on EWR RWR

[Kappa-06MHR]

@Currenthill : I don't know if you planed to upgrade the Krivak II class (Rezky), but if you do, I have some questions : 
Is it possible in DCS to modelise weapons like :

- SS-N 14 Silex : 
 

- RBU-6000 (Against submarine)

I'm afraid the actual game do not support thoses types of Weapons ?
