Re: Finnish OOB 9.0 corrections
 

We keep telling people this is a GAME not a SIMULATION but it doesn't seem to matter that IMHO formed over a couple of decades of playing that people buy air assets ( when they even bother to........ ) they are looking for something that drops things that go bang and only very select few really care if the things that go bang are named correctly or may be a slightly different size than we attached of that nation whatever doesn't have 359 kg bombs it has 325 kg bombs.

OK your " beef" is mainly with the cluster bombs......fair enough I can replace them easily enough but why don't you give me a hint what would make you happy ..(1000lb JDAM ? )...the opportunity is now -------so I don't have to got through this again NEXT year and it saves me combing through translated Finn websites to find out something that you obviously already know

Therefore JASSM not included in here, but will probably appear during this year or the beginning of 2017.
