Default Great Britain OOB - Jaguar

Don,

I've taken a look at the Jaguar fighter/ground attack a/c in the OOB. The out-of-service date of this a/c should be October 2007.

Detailed comments hereunder:

Unit 462 - OK, as OSD for the SNEB rocket is round about that date

Units 472/473/474/475 should be valid until 10/2007

Unit 590 - SEAD. Should have an OSD of March 1994, when the Martel weapon was retired. ISD should be harmonised at Jan '75 with No. 462 above.

A further Unit should be introduced, I'm afraid. With the GR3/GR3A upgrade of the Jaguar, it was fitted with the TIALD targetting pod and was able to carry Paveway II and Paveway III bombs.

No more than 2 such bombs should be carried (Jaguar is a little short of oomph.....) ISD for the GR3 should be January '97

Again, these are minor matters which will not radically impact upon gameplay. To be considered "at leisure".
