  1. If you can guarantee a target will be within an HE beaten zone at the time of impact, a probability of effect can be calculated and expected up to and including destruction Most, if not all Mech armies have SOP's to ensure they move after first impact, thus making HE beating zones ineffective to alert mobile units, and given the weight to HP (speed) now to move quickly out of said beating zone. In my time (centurion was a rank), during training, and qualifications we had personnel who would throw devices simulating a arty strike, and the unit had a time assigned to leave the area, this was in the 30 sec (cold start, crews mounted) for the standard, along with dispersion within the unit, it was not 50m at any time while in ops in open terrain. If running, less than 10 sec, as we are aware of the threat, and trained to carry out our Arty strike SOP. Arty (non LDM) is best employed in MHO on trenches, inf in open, and on foot where escaping the zone cannot be done quickly. We are seeing this being played out in eastern EU. As for SB, well, reducing the strike to 50x50m will increase ones chance for destruction on a non-mobile target.
  2. Here is a link that makes this post seem some what...umm "misleading" some would say...:) https://rumble.com/v1ew9qt-08.08.2022-chronicle-of-military-operations-russia-ukraine.html?mref=6zof&mrefc=3 https://www.bitchute.com/video/WFq9qkWUDNdQ/
  3. Also ammo is important, make sure you using the same, or close in the timeline for the ammo. Using a AFV with 1970's against 2000's enemy's ammo is no fun.
  4. Yes, (on various DL sites) however there will be a DirectX issue if operating latest DirectX versions. I tried, and it works on my 2nd PC using Win XP and that version of DX. We have come a long way from that early SB.:)
  5. Custom maps object, DK (rubber tracks) can elaborate on this, or not......JK'ing DK
  6. We shall look into this , candidate for the patch. Thx

    Ouch!

  8. BTR Tank burnt, how ever "Z" paint survived, LOL
  9. If known in scn, yes, added to trg list (high)......just to be sure ...(nuke from orbit theory).....:)
  10. It is possible to take one of many signs, and place a fig (whatever) target picture on it, and place back into the sim library It's a work around for those people who want this feature, with little effort.:)
  11. Meanwhile, back in a parallel universe...

  14. LGM's for everyone, There is little chatter pertaining to LGM's here. Might be a entertaining topic. Lots of current vids of them being used. No idea on what ESim has in mind ( laserpointers ), busy as usual I would think, my guess , and only a guess as I have no knowledge, "when they get time" But ya, a whole new arty level

  16. Most would see it as a preview of upcoming AFV's, then others may see.................................context from Pt-1 Well I won't comment on critical thinking skills, https://duckduckgo.com/?q=netigive+waves&atb=v312-1&iax=videos&ia=videos&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D54oqYyy_r_Q
  17. No, while some AFV's in SB have all features as in real ones, some do not.......but we have all seen the capabilities grow. So who knows what features will be added in time. I think ESim have a proven record of adding capabilities, if not when a AFV is included, at a later date. IE: MG sights Note that other Arty sys in SB could have fired LGM if implemented, however it would require a unit with Laser designator's, maybe in the future we will see this feature. Most arty have in RL have LGMs shells, this nothin new.
  18. Context is everything......:) nona 23_.mp4 Disclaimer: The version in 4.3 does not have Laser guided rounds.
  19. .....Standby for Pt-2 please.......................

  21. I concur. There is a place in simulation where both the operator, and the human taking place in military training that falls into a narrow lane. I have stated that the US army's gunnery simulator, we use the German type for our Leopards, there are others. Strictly gunnery with not much else, no multi-units, other humans other than those involved in gunnery procedures training. To me, and others who have trained on such systems, there is no dough this is not a GAME. https://www.dvidshub.net/image/3888659/2-69-ar-advanced-gunnery-training-simulator This type of exposure to simulations has formed my view point, that being said.............. I can see how the definitions blend into each other though
  22. Correct. I used less simulation software than the US Army. Posted only my MOS as to stay on subject (mech warfare).
  23. Disagree: Simulation software is used to determine the output of a specific instance. Not in my experience, they have been used to train troops on sop's (standard Operating Procedures). The confirmation on the unit under going training. IE: does this unit carryout their stated SOP or is more trg required. This can be used in a small unit, or large scale SOP's to a given tasks to preform. I have never seen any simulation software used to determine anything other than the units adhering to their SOPs, as stated in their orders. As a operator in such training my task was to read both the units SOPs, and then their orders, then in the AAR state where they deviated, and where improvements would be required. Unit leaders would then review their performance pertaining to their understanding of both , then make the necessary adjustments. SB and DCS as "simulators". They are games Most people in and out of the military see a games VS sims as point , badges, rank or earned status type of software. There , as you know none of this in Sb, only here in the forum. And yes they are boring, sleeping on the floor in the SIMNET is not all that fun, however most tasks within the army are also, IE "hurry up and wait" or as my friends in the 10th Mountain say "the suck" The UCOF is a better example of a simulator in my view. Your country may use them differently than others, some may comment on their use of such software. so we get a overview, and not a small sampling of views. And I will continue to refer to SB as a Sim. Free speech and all..:)
