DCS 2.5.4.26368 Open Beta

DCS AJS 37 Viggen by Heatblur Simulations Update

•   Fixed missing texture for Rb75/T/B
•   Fixed issues with kneeboard. Some cosmetic issues still remaining.
•   Kneeboard now displays flight-plan of selected data cartridge.

Force speed works like it does in the Mission Editor, and not like in CK37, so setting a speed on B2 will have it use that speed from B1 to B2 and after, similar to setting speed on B1 manually in CK37.
•   Manual update, RC2

If you like heatblur, you should seriously think about getting the tomcat.  It's actually pretty easy to get it up and flying, but challenging enough to keep your attention.  The multi few possiblities are well worth the price of admission.
