What does "WNR" in the radar value of some aircraft mean?
Some aircraft have a "@" symbol after the Fuel Points. I assume this should be a "&" to indicate air-to-air refueling is possible.
Rules 9.2.1 suggests some SSMs are marked with a "+" symbol after their AI Value and they are more accurate and can ignore Table 9.2.1. I see none of these, so I assume it is for future, later versions of the rules.

1) WNR= Weather/Navigation Radar...it is useful for navigation and determining weather ahead, but does not have any unit detection ability. There in case I wanted to add more detailed weather/navigation rules later on...
2) You are correct, the @ should be & ...offhand do you recall which aircraft have these? (I will correct them)
3) The '+' sign would be on later missiles that have a method to precisely correct its course over long distances, mainly some later land-attack cruise missiles and GPS-corrected munitions. This is partially superseded by missiles with TerCom guidance that have their own game rules (Guidance mode 'T' in the 1980s rules manual) which in effect have the '+' capability.

Thanks for that.
The only "@" that I am aware of that should be "&" are the F-117A and the EA-3B.
