F/A-18E and F/A-18F are added to their factions, Growler is currently in
its respective factions but was released in 2009, this will be changed
if needed.
I think someone just copied this pattern from the icons where the suffix
represented the icon size. These are definitely not 24px banners, and
some of the suffixes are even wrong (_25).
Resolves#1964 but adding CTLD will require the use of Liberation plugins and thus are not included in this pull request.
- Implemented support for the UH-60L mod by =X51= Kinkkujuustovoileipa, Cubeboy, Jonas, JinxxDCS, Dorian, =X51= Parzival & =X51= Lawson.
- Because the standard DCS tankers will not fly below 160ish knots, the UH-60L mod team have included a modified version of the KC-130 tanker designed for refueling at speeds of 120-130kts.
DCS features a massive range of aircraft and land vehicles, and not all of them make their role(s) clear just from the name alone. What this commit does is add an "information" button (and resultant window) to the recruitment section. This should allow new players to understand what each unit is/does.
Current state - every aircraft has a country of origin and an introduction date for that variant. Some also have a small placeholder description, taken from ED's store page for that aircraft. There is also a placeholder picture (taken from a rejected image from my own personal photography) that will, in time, show a banner image of each unit.
Todo - add appropriate screenshots for each aircraft's banner, replace the placeholder text for each aircraft (this will take a while...) and add more data points for each unit type, such as a unit role (i.e. "air-superiority fighter", "multirole fighter", etc) or perhaps a list of weapons carried. I also haven't made a start on the huge number of ground units yet.
