no links cuz i dont have enough points yet ;-;
also desc might look weird cuz i typed this on a notepad file and copied it to the description box
known issues
if only 1 AIM-9X is fired, CoM imbalance may occur
in combat missions, if amraams are jettisoned or all 6 are fired, game considers it as fail
For instructions on how to operate the avionics, please refer to the instruction manual in the original build's description
