Tactical graphics, MORE 3D 😎 An air corridor, seen from the side: floor and ceiling against the terrain. The tightest clearance is marked on the chart and the map. Over 300 FM 1-02.2 and NATO APP-06 graphics. Find out more at zaes.com/tactical-graphics

Tactical graphics, now in 3D. Our new Cesium add-on draws all 300+ MIL-STD-2525E and APP-06 tactical graphics on real terrain. Airspace respects its floor and ceiling, and you get to drag either one to change it. Export to KML or CZML. Ask us about it: zaes.com

People who say “less is more” clearly aren’t talking about tactical graphics. We just added 26 more, along with improved compliance with standards. And there’s more to come - we don’t stop! zaes.com/tactical-graphics.h…

Working on more configuration features, plus the small subset of remaining graphics. Stay tuned 😎
I'm about to release a MASSIVE addition to the mission verbs / tactical control measures / graphics, using @ZaesDev's zaes.com/tactical-graphics-c… (THANK YOU!). This means some of your already placed stuff may look different. So please doublecheck after the update.
