Add This to the Ships

[Mike Force Team]

For the super carrier and associated surface warships, can ED add flares and chaff? I know that CIWS is used on some ships to shoot down hostile threads but they do not use chaff or flares to spoof ASW missiles.

Better EW would be awesome

The entire naval combat part of DCS needs a big overhaul. This would be a nice step towards it.

Agreed, modular damage, such as the ship not sinking but going haywire if only the bridge is hit by a missile, would also be great. The health bar just seems unrealistic

It certainly would go quite a way into improving naval combat.

They would need to improve the seeker modelling on all current anti-ship missiles, such that they can be affected by countermeasures (even if it's the same dice roll system) and some ships have decoy launchers that can be trained to fire in different directions (namely the PK-2 on the Moskva and Admiral Kuznetsov and to a less of an extent the Corvus launcher on RAZBAM's Leanders).
