Notes:
When attacking with the A-4's Sidewinders get them on the enemy's 6. This can also be done easier with a trick by getting them to engage with guns which will make the aircraft get into position. Then target with a Sidewinder at the right distance and position. The AIM-9B's only work if you are in the right firing position as the 9B version is rear aspect only. Otherwise the A-4 will not engage after a moment of trying. The same goes for any other aircraft with rear aspect only IR AAMs in the base game.

S-2 Tracker's depth charges reliably deploy when flying at 1,000ft or lower

All textures are in 2k and can impact systems. If its to big of a problem I will work on a 1k texture size format version of the mod.

Daring turrets are split into 2 groups, left and right for the Bofors, and front and back for the Mk6 4.5inch guns. This lets the turrets fire at targets instead of holding fire while out of arc.
