Danish oob

[math_villard]

1) I note a problem in the Danish oob: TOW-2 team (unit 277) and ITOW team don't appear in the game. You must change the radio rate (from 83 to 84 or 82).

2) Will the Leopard 2A5 DK be updated with 120mm L44 WG01
or 120 mm L55 WG 01 gun?

3) Does anybody have information about Danish elite units:
- J�gerkorpset (JGK) : "The Hunters" are the Danish Army Special Forces (SOF)
- Fr�mandskorpset (FKP) : the Danish Navy SEALs (SOF)

4) Recent Danish FO vehicle have very low vision rate. Piranha FO? Denmark own 22 Piranha III : 18 APC, 2 CP (Command Post) and 2 ARV (Armoured Recovery Vehicle)

Lot�s of things are "wrong" with the Danish OOB. Most of it has to do with TO&E and unit organization though.

The Leo 2A5 islikely to follow the general trend in modern ammunition developments, and should be upgraded with the kind of ammunition represented by the WG01 in the game, some time in the future. The L55 Gun still remains a hypothetic possibility.

J�gerkorpset uses 5 man patrols, Fr�mandskorpset use the more traditional 4 man "SAS inspired" layout. Weapons include MP 5 (possibly silenced) C7 Rifles, C8 carbines, G3 Rifles, Minimi and MG3 Machineguns, 7.62 and 12.7mm Sniper Rifles, AT-4 and 84mm CG AT-Weapons.

The Pirnaha isn�t used as an FO vehicle, but the M113 FO (and the leg FO�s too) unit should have a thermal sight (vis. 40) available from 1989 and forwards.

BTW. I would like to extend the same offer to the SPCAMo group as that polish dude just did: redo the Danish OOB. As I understand, the guidelines are as follows:

"What Andy and I need is clear information not a completed OOB. We have had too many problems with third party OOB's in the past so if you have changes you would like to have made to the Polish OOB what we need is information , on a list and if there are big differences in what you have in comparison to what we have we need source info as well."

I suppose that a list of intended changes, stating what needs changed in the current OOB and why, coupled with an example of an OOB changed in such a way would be what you are wanting in this regard, yes?

What is needed is a text file change request list, item by item, unit, weapon, formation ID numbers, new values etc as bullet ppoints. No OOB at all, thanks. We will (if the changes get implemented) make the edits to the OOB ourselves.

For major changes - we would really need some sort of supporting documentation. Preferably a pointer to an official site (e.g. for massive organisational changes).

Put into a TXT file, and attach it to the posting (saves having a massive posting in the thread ! - and means it can be easily downloaded and opened in notepad, unlike a huge post on the list.

Cheers

List of suggested changes with documentation? Can do. But some (if not most) of the sources are military declassified manuals, not available on the web (but available through the Royal Military Library), so you will need some other person "in-country" if you really want to verify. Or simply trust me that "Reglement for Pansertropperne 303-2. Skydeinstruktion for Kampvogn Centurion" really deals with the Centurion Tank and it�s properties ;-)

Denmark used to be the "baby" of one of the long term playtesters (Claus Bonnesen I seem to recall) - and he was a reserve tank officer in the Danish military as I recall. He had acces to that sort of info, and because of our relationship we could trust what he said about such things !

I think this is Claus' Danish army site: http://www.panser.dk/

However over the last couple of years others have been involved in the OOB editing - and these may not have had his detailed info.

Error in new Danish OOB
unit # 440 MRAP 6x6 has weapon slot 56 attached to it. There is nothing in this slot. Weapon #55 is a 12.7 AAMG so I assume that this is the correct one.
