Hello everyone,
While I am working on an Alternative Ordinance List (AOL) for BAT, there are vast information that surprised me. It is my goal to give add the information to the equipment and weapons in weapon.properities. With that, for any of us who are not entirely familiar with the ordinance purposes, we can use them properly in IL-2 1946 BAT while gaining the knowledges from them.
At the same time, there are times when the ordinance comes up without the specific names and I do not want to assume and give them inaccurate names by mistake. Hence is why I have many questions here. I appreciate the supports and knowledge from SAS community. Here are the list of questions.
