Weapon Delivery Planner

[Falcas]

Hi,

Now that BMS has been released, Weapon Delivery Planner, (WDP in short) can also be released.
WDP is a planning tool for Falcon that will help the pilot. The program contains so much that is is beyond this post.
Check out this website for the download and articles about WDP.
http://www.weapondeliveryplanner.nl

Just a couple of things that WDP will do for you.

• Manage your DTC. More than you can actually do in BMS itself.
• Create a datacard/lineup card with a few clicks.
• Manage all the files for large MP flights.

and much much more

You need .NET4.5 installed on your system.
.NET
As well as Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
