I noticed there is no drone detection ring on your defence platforms, despite all the aircraft available. Is this just an oversight and yhey do actually detect drones or is it a case that that just wasn't implemented? Just asking so I know wether to mix in the base game naval monitoring stations among the defence platforms. Thx for the mod, excellent edition to the game!:steamhappy:

@saulferrandiz Absolutely. I have released the Japanese Naval Air Station mod just for you my friend. :awoo:

I started playing with the QOL mod by Combat, along with his Battlecruiser, HLA and Arsenal Ship mods. I feel like I'm missing instalations where there are any naval helis, other than the default monitoring station. So with his QOL you get Spec Ops helis for Air Bases and Attack helis for tactical bases, which I do apreciate, yet that leaves all five slots locked. That makes your maritime patrol aircraft unusable :(

I kind of hoped this mod could fit in that need, however it has just two naval helis, it seems well balanced, not complaining. So here's an idea:

How about a land-based naval air station with less weapons and more aircraft. Multi-role attacker (~10), Naval heli (6 to 8), Carrier AWACS (2), Maritime patrol and the fifth could be anything. It would work best as a separate mod and could have your maritime patrol incorporated only in said NAS so people can still use QOL mod

thx and sorry for the tirade lol

Any possibility for an AEGIS type system?

Like an AEGIS Destroyer & Aegis ashore type of thing?

@Zombiedragon I will check it out.

@PhantomCrestTV The C-RAM Emplacements mod has been updated to include SEA-RAMs, a new water-deployable missile defense system.

Love this mod, proving very useful when playing in south asia/australia and middle america (denying the texas gulf). Fantastic job.

As for other mod ideas I'd recommend checking out the declassified US document: AD-A956 443 which is a 1980s ICBM basing concepts document (should be able to be found in a search engine). Other ideas would be a Mobile Operating Base (MOB, has a Wikipedia page) or Nuclear powered hovercraft based ships/aircraft carrier (think naval units but faster). Just ideas though, don't have to do them.

@PhantomCrestTV Yes, that is easily doable. I'll see what I can do after the new year's.

Mayhaps we could have a Sea deployable C-RAM?
