This is a pair of HCF files from the World War III Database...


the P-3C Update IV (Aircraft modifications started in 1999)
Replaced Sonobouy processor,  Sonobouy bay (new bay for un-disclosed sonobouys) and new Radar.

Also Update IV aircraft are now Maverick Capable...  The Maverick will replace the Harpoon on all ASW mission loadouts as the Harpoon is now judged as overkill on Subs.


The P-7 Posidon was cancled in 1989/1990 in light of the A-12 affair.  The P-7 was to be based upon the P-3 but use techniques developed for the new C-130J Hurcules II and new engines.  At one point in the program high activity props (similar to what the Tu-95/Tu-142 Bear series have) were investigated as a half way point to the propfan.  

The P-7 is more capable than the Update IV standard P-3 (Longer range beter sensors etc)


Both files are attached as sperate HCF files so you can choose to add the P-7 if you wish

PS  The P-7 is based upon the origional P-7 Developed for the WWIII DB by Dale Hiller.  He did the bulk of the reaserch into building this platform.
