What is this mod for?: RHS MAAWS changes
What is this mod, what does it add/fix/replace: Allows for ammo based sight adjustment on RHS MAAWS, fixing the drop issue with HEDP. In addition, allows for setting fuses (Point Det/Delay/Airburst) and adds new ammo types for greater utility ie. Illumination flares, Anti Structure Munitions
Personal experience if any(tested in editor? experience in other unit?) Tested in editor, against buildings, vehicles and infantry both in the open and hiding behind cover, with some fairly good results, but still maintaining about the same effectiveness against vehicles.
When are you expecting to use this? Useful to any campaign using the MAAWS in the Medium AT role
Is there alternatives for this mod? There is a vanilla version https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2589302544&searchtext=maaws thats very simelar and a cup version https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3386900634
Which CBA Settings should this start with (if any) Default
Does it have dependencies that are not approved yet? Is there J6/7 action required before we can use this? None
Should this be a core, optional or normal mod Core or Normal, if RHS is in use it should be active.

Consultation extended by 120 days. J8 Mods Staff Please do not move item forward without consulting Training Team - Anti-vehicle due to the need for them to be done with SOP rewrite, as well as J5 Loadouts Staff to handle loadouts.

Request for consultation to be extended J11 Command Support Unit Staff , will require major policy rewrite and additions. AV comfortable giving soft approval but mod CANNOT be used until sop rewite is finalised.

Training Team - Anti-vehicle will begin preliminary testing and an impact on role assessment. If implemented this will require large policy changes, as such it is the current position of the TT that we will need final veto on this after J8 testing and soft approval. Suggest 1 month max testing time to allow for a full assessment and creation of draft policy should the TT think it is a good implementation. Vyqe, Moo and Jaffas to discuss offline.

I'll allow myself to push it to Consultation stage, so to better indicate current needs of Training Team - Anti-vehicle input :)

@Cpl DrJaffas Primarily to allow for proper ranging per ammo type for the RHS MAAWS optic as the RHS mod lacks that capability, resulting in some ammo types like HE dropping way short of intended impact points with little to no way to accurately adjust. In addtion, it provides more capabilities to the MAAWS such as Illumination, and anti structure munitions and setting fuse types/times giving it a multi use role as is intended by the real world version (see image attached) #https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https://api...

@Cpl Argo From J5's position, additional MAAWS ammunition types can be thrown directly into the arsenal, so it wouldn't take too long to integrate this mod loadout-wise

Important additional point, the RHS MAAWS is typically NOT used in loadouts due to the annoying reload animation that forces you into a standing stance. Factions that are issued the MAAWS are normally given the VANILLA variant instead, thus I'd suggest going for the listed vanilla alternative of this mod suggestion

good to know.
Will only consider the vanilla version of this mod then as the RHS version would not be needed and the CUP version is unmaintained and non functional.

request TC/AV TT are included in the authorisation authority of this given the high sop impact this will have.

will need at a minimum 20 days to say yes to it then longer for a massive SOP rewrite as this will need multiple guides and skills.
initial testing is going well
