I've come to realise that two external tanks is overkill for pretty much all A2G mission types. The AI no longer have a problem with fuel, and player flights will essentially never run out of fuel with the 2 CFTs and a single external tank. I have done 700+ mile trips at mil power the whole way with fuel to spare. I have therefore switched all A2G mission loadouts to a single tank. A2A loadouts still carry 2 tanks, as players may require the extra fuel if they make very extensive use of afterburner in air combat. It turns out the GBU31v3 JDAMs are bugged in more than one way. We've known that they vanish if carried in pairs on the CFT pylons, but now it turns out their penetration doesn't actually work. This means they are no better in any way than the GBU31v1s, which are not bugged on CFT pylons. I have therefore removed the penetrator JDAMs from all loadouts, replacing them with regular JDAMs.

About DCS Liberation
DCS Liberation is a DCS World turn based single-player or co-op dynamic campaign. It is an external program that generates full and complex DCS missions and manage a persistent combat environment.
Note that DCS Liberation does not support the stable release of DCS. We can only guarantee compatibility with either the open beta or the stable release, and more people play the open beta. DCS stable might work sometimes, but it's untested, and we will be unable to fix any bugs unique to stable DCS.

Roadmap
Our plans for future releases can be found on our Projects page. Each planned release has a Project, and the page for that project has columns for to do, in progress, and done. Items in the Done column are in the preview build for that release. Items in the To do column are planned to be added to that release.

Special Thanks
First, a big thanks to shdwp, for starting the original DCS Liberation project.
Then, DCS Liberation uses pydcs for mission generation, and nothing would be possible without this. It also uses the popular Mist lua framework for mission scripting.
Excellent lua scripts DCS Liberation uses as plugins:
- For the JTAC feature, DCS Liberation embeds Ciribob's JTAC Autolase script.
- Walder's Skynet-IADS is used for Integrated Air Defense System.
Please also show some support to these projects !
