/images/notams/notams20/brav0402.jpgThe Bravo Zulu Firefly for P3D and FSX has beenupdated to include TacPack functionality. TacPack from VRSadds working weapons to the Firefly allowing the guns, bombs, androckets to interact with the simulated world allowing you to take outthe pesky AI that cut you up in the landing pattern, or to take onmore 'intelligent' opponents in multi-player. With TacPack installedthe Firefly's weapons will automatically gain the extra capability. The update also includes a number of minor fixes to the aircrafttrim, canopy sound, and P3Dv4 carrier compatibility and retains theoriginal non-destructive rockets and bombs.
