This patch is only for the retail editions of TacOps v403 through v406AC. Do not apply this patch package to TacOps v3.x or to any military version of TacOps - permanent damage will result.

US Gun SP 75mm LVTA4.
US Howitzer 75mm Pack
US Howitzer SP 75mm Pack.
US Howitzer SP 105mm M3
US Howitzer SP 105mm M7
User request. Revised all WW2 direct fire weapons data base entries so that useful range ends at 10% ph vice 5% ph.
User request. Unit types with organic dozer blades now display the words "Dozer blade" in the unit info window and in the unit data base window.
User request. Changed the name of unit type "JP Tank Type 94 Tankette" to "JP RECV Type 94 Tankette" and changed its wire box map symbol to armored reconnaissance.
User request. When the program reports that units have exited the map, the game no longer pauses until the player manually closes an alert window. That information is now shown transiently in the info line at the bottom of the map window. The info window will blink for about three seconds to highlight this report. Also, the unit map exit alert is now not shown to opposing players. In multiplayer games, the unit map exit alert will be shown to the owning player, to the umpire, and to spectators.
Added a date for a unit type's year of initial operational capability (IOC) to the Unit Information window, the Unit Data Base window, and the Add One Unit window. At present the unit data base contains IOC dates for only a minority of unit types (mainly WWII items).
Bug fix. When firing indirect fire, on map arty units were wrongly much less likely to be spotted by opposing units (with a legal line of sight) than when they or similar unit types were firing direct fire.
Bug fix. The RU SU57 was wrongly equipped with a 76mm gun instead of a 57mm gun.
