Notes:
1- Earlier we had hoped to include some ATC changes in 1.2.5. However, due to some unresolved bugs and a staffing change, we were unable to complete this in time for 1.2.5.
2- We are well aware of other known item such EOS, CBU-97/105 effectiveness, countermeasure effectiveness, client control of air units in CA, game performance, etc., and they will be addressed as time and resources allow. There really is no need for, "what about..." questions.

cool. me too, most likely. sounds like there are some issues with 1.2.5. Among other things the A-10A AFM that was supposed to be released somehow didn't make it in (by accident). They're working for a fix to the fix as usual....
