Open Beta 2.5.6 Update
Dear Customers,
Today we release the Open Beta 2.5.6.55363 with several high priority issues for the Hornet AIM-9 family which were discovered yesterday. However, I decided to release this OB because it delivers significant changes made by our partners to the aircraft that are very important for you and we prepared new features for Hornet and Viper.
The issues will be fixed and updated during the coming week.
Sincerely,
Kate Perederko
Chief Operating Officer
