Re: SP and SPAA Developments
Well, it appears the M777A2 artillery systems we sent DID NOT COME WITH THE COMPUTER AIDED TARGETING SYSTEM. So it can't for instance fire EXCALIBUR with the precision the computer would've allowed for. But as the article notes they are getting precision fires because they're getting GPS targeting data from drones and spotters.
If we didn't send them you should understand by now nobody else did either.

While we're on that topic, has anyone used the drones we added last release?

Yes and the two times I have used it one got shot down, and the second it was useful but not gaming changing.

Re: SP and SPAA Developments
I'm playing a generated campaign game as the USA in 2022 and I just noticed the drones under the scout helo group. So I have bought one for my next round of the campaign and will give a try, interested to see how long it lasts until ka-boom

Re: SP and SPAA Developments
I've been playing with the RPAS drones lately. The fact that they are transportable with no cost comes in very handy. Getting an idea of how visible they are to enemy is ongoing, but the spotting function with the switchblades works like a charm.

Re: SP and SPAA Developments
Well after my Post #209 POTUS changed his mind two days later and I started watching to see what would happen. I got my answer about thirty minutes ago The Ukraine has NOW a battery (4) of HIMARS with the extended range 70km rockets. This was part of our new package approved this week.
I'm thinking this was a brilliant " sleight of hand" of disinformation against Russia for which those systems would cross a " red line" with them.
https://www.armyrecognition.com/defe..._vehicles.html
The following reports what's in the current package and provides a full update as to what we've sent to the Ukraine.
https://www.armyrecognition.com/defe...r_ukraine.html
And also, as I offered in the post referenced at top, and this literally just came up, we've given NORWAY permission at some earlier point in time to send the Ukraine their M109A3GN improved SPA systems. Refer back to Para 2, they're also in country on the front.
https://www.armyrecognition.com/defe...nian_army.html
They're there and in operation, don't have time to break this down more- I gotta go to work!!!
Regards
Pat
