      Version: Israeli Theater 1.0.3 for BMS 4.33.3
      Detailed Description
      Can’t task MiG-29A from the 697th Fighter Squadron out of Sayqal

      Reproducibility
      1. Start Falcon BMS (Theater ITO)
      2. Start TE Builder
      3. Save Tactical Engagement as “Test.tac”
      4. Start TE Test.tac and join Syria
      5. Try to add Package/Flight of MiG-29A out of Sayqal

      Any ideas?

      Thank you in advance!
      Nick

        Nick,

        Had the same problem and only currently noticed it.
        The possible cause of the problem is a typo in teplanes.lst file located under
        the theater’s campaign folder.

        To fix it:

        1. Open the teplanes.lst file with a text editor.
        2. Go to the line that reads: // MiG-29A Fulcrum
        3. At line that just follows the above make sure it reads (7 numbers): 1 6 17 8 21142 53 10090
        4. Correct any typo (most likely it is the third number: for me 14 appeared instead of 17).
        5. Save and test in TE editor.

        Hope this will help and sorry for the late answer.

            Tested it and after modifying teplanes.lst to read 1 6 17 8 21142 53 10090
            all worked fine (test was with the latest release of the theater).
            By the way teplanes.lst can be edited from mission commander (planes tab).

            It appears that this error in teplanes.lst exists in default Korea and (possibly / to be confirmed)
            other theaters.
            Root cause is in the database. Referring to CT record 163 (Mig-29A) instead of CT record 1848 (also Mig-29A)
            in teplanes.lst while no aircraft vehicle record exists for CT 163.
