New Cold War 2020 mod release! (RC 0.4)

[PlasmaKrab]

Thanks for the info, Marcello. That the original version of the Tu-160 cannot carry anything else than nuke cruise missiles make sense, as that was the case with most cold-war era strat bombers.
That the modernization allowing it to carry conventional ordnance happens only these days at a slow pace (I guess) is one of the things the Cold War mod is precisely meant to correct. From this day my bomber Blackjacks happen only from 1995 onwards.

Re. 152mm, we shall see if the Russians are heading anywhere like this in the real world. AFAIK no country has actually got anything beyond the 120/125 standard in service, despite numerous design efforts (Leopard-2KWS3, Leclerc, K2, Merkava-Mk4...) so the need isn't that appalling, and real-life Russians have enough work catching up on APFSDS technology and maybe transitioning to one-piece ammo (qv Black Eagle) before doing anything silly.
Talking about ammo loadout, I realize I have been a bit on the generous size with my T-95s.
AFAIK the original projects for the 140mm gun called for a two-piece round taking the room of 1.5 120mm round, meaning around 30 rounds for converted Western tanks. That's without including lengthened storage that would be obvious on autoloading tanks and should raise the ammo count to ~36.

You'll have to tell me more about these ATGMs, Spike, because I don't see where the issue is.

Keeping up the good work, R.C.0.5 due next week...
