 ## Fixes

+* **[Mission Generation]** Airbase and FOB capture is no longer blocked by grounded aircraft / helicopters.
 * **[Squadrons]** Fixed the livery for the VF-33 F-14A squadron.
 * **[Theaters]** Fixed Channel campaigns not having data for land/sea/obstacle boundaries, causing front lines to extend into forests and water. Requires a new campaign to get the fix.
