Re: North Korea errors report

I don’t think they should be in the OOB unless there is some hard evidence that they were in reserve somewhere. Concord’s Tank Warfare in Korea looks at various Soviet shipments of armoured...

Re: North Korea errors report

I’m not sure about Unit 461 in the North Korean OOB. It is a SU-100 with a start date in 1951 during the Korean War. I don’t think the North Koreans used the SU-100 during that war. I have...

Re: NSV-12.7 HE Penetration (multiple nations)

I thought that would be the case. I just posted what I found out about the ammo to find out for sure.

Re: NSV-12.7 HE Penetration (multiple nations)

There is some information about 12.7 mm AP bullets in the Russia's Arm's catalogue:

The AP-I-T BZT-44 was introduced some time before...

Re: Westland Wessex

It does seem to be the Royal Navy/Royal Marines who used armed Wessex helicopters rather than the RAF.

Armed Wessex transports

There were two configurations for armed Wessex transports. Some...

Re: Iraqi errors report - Part 2

I've just quickly looked up the 100 mm rounds in question in the Jane’s Ammunition Handbook. It isn’t particularly good for ‘older’ ammunition but here are a few quotes from the book.

Westland Wessex

I think the Westland Wessex helicopter (obat07/ Units 529 and 537) can only carry 12 men in the game. It could carry 16. i.e. two infantry squads.

There are also two or three armed versions of...

Re: Suhiir's Revised USMC OOB #13

I have a small suggestion for Obat 13 in general: add a new LBM for Unit 4. The LBMs in the current and revised USMC OOBs are quite generic whereas the POA-CWS-H5 had a very distinctive appearance....

Re: Early U.S. Army armed helos

I think a H-13 was tested in the States soon after the outbreak of the Korean War.

Re: Early U.S. Army armed helos

Yes. That’s what I meant. The U.S. Army formally adopted armed versions of the two helos with 2x30’s (which is what I meant by the XM-1 system) after the Korean War. Not 1946 or 1951.

Early U.S. Army armed helos

I do not believe the U.S. had any armed helos in service before or during the Korean War. There are two light attack helicopters in obat12 with availability start dates before the end of the Korean...

Re: Campaign Poll

The Miltech book only mentions the largest air bases. When I looked up the Eritrea-Ethiopia border war, I found that the Ethiopians had an air base at Mekele – which is much closer to the border. ...

Re: Campaign Poll

Presumably you mean other Ethiopian airbases. Debre Zeyit is the most important. According to Miltech there are other major military airbases near Goba and Harar/Jijiga. The Ethiopians may also...

Re: British OOB June 1944 - additional formations?

Looks like the regulars got the Brens and the Home Guard got the old Lewis gun. Many of them would have been familiar with it from the First World War. :D

Re: A30 Avenger

The Avenger’s turret was open topped with a roof perched over it. The stuff on the roof is probably the two hatch doors open and pushed forward.
