A-10C BFT Campaign by Maple Flag:

Today we release the Open Beta 2.5.6.55363 with several high priority issues for the Hornet AIM-9 family which were discovered yesterday. However, I decided to release this OB because it delivers significant changes made by our partners to the aircraft that are very important for you and we prepared new features for Hornet and Viper.The issues will be fixed and updated during the coming week.Sincerely,AIM-120 missile. The probability of countermeasure spoofing returned to the old value.Replay system. User tracks in some condition replay with very low FPS - fixed.Infantry not engaging each other - fixed.AI aircraft using high drag MK 82 Snakeye not below 1000ft - fixed.Crash to desktop on wingman actions - fixed.Ground AI vehicles no longer move on their own to use weapons - fixed.Piston engine fire effect is fixed.Enabled all aircraft types to rearm from friendly FARP objects.Decreased range opens fire Soldier with M1 Garand from 1200 to 500 meters.F-14 AI will operate on the ground parkings with folded wings.Web RTC. Updated GUI.AI Ju-88 and A-20 ignore reaction to threat settings - fixed.ME. Metric and imperial sometimes displayed incorrectly - fixed.Third Reich pilot model. Remove Swastika from Iron Cross.Increased g-tolerance of pilot.Effects. The Speed smoke and fire was improved.Sound. Added a more robust workaround for broken drivers.Mouse input. Added ability to assign commands to extra mouse buttons.Modern SAMs (S-300, Patriot, Tor, SM etc.) have to engage aircraft weapons like ARM, tactical and cruise missiles. Restored ability.Starting WP for ships has a speed of 0 km\h by default.Western RWR:Added symbol for new Kuznetsov (2017) - SWChanged indications of SAM search RADARsTuned ARU to measure speed and altitude more accurately.Tuned AA missile range and tracking features for the R-3S/R, R-13M/M1, and R-60.Tuned RS-2US and R-55 missiles ranges and tracking features to a limited extent, according to little available credible data.Fixed AA missile IR sensors from targeting the sun below the horizon and behind obstacles.Increased the front leg spring force to improve shimmy dampening.Adjusted Syria instant action missions.Added Roadbase mission for Syria Map.Added more Quickstart missions for Syria Map.Reduced opacity of HUD and Canopy glass.Increased night illumination of ADI.Tweaked wheel brake effectiveness.Fixed RB-05 Flare visibility.Updated RB-24J to sync with ED AIM-9P.Fixed RB-05 Cover appearing after missile is fired, instead of before.NEW!
