Where can I find a list of all the acronyms that DCS campaign use?
I'm sometimes a bit confused by the objective information page before a campaign mission. Sometimes just googling e.g. " SEAD " helps but sometimes I really have to dig hard to find it. Is there a list or page that can assist a noob when it comes to reading briefing information?
