Kneeboards for F-5E-3 Tiger II for startup procedures and air-to-air missile, unguided bombs and rockets, and cannon employment
These are not official procedures, just what I've put together as a quick reminder on startup procedures, and how to employ air-to-air missiles, unguided bombs and rockets, and cannon on the F-5E-3 (after not flying it for a while). Kneeboards included:

F-5E - AIR-TO-AIR ACM IR MISSILES AND CANNON.png
F-5E - AIR-TO-GROUND BOMBS ROCKETS GUNS.png
F-5E - AIR-TO-GROUND RETICLE DEPRESSION CHARTS.png
NOTE:
The F-5E kneeboards need to be placed in the F-5E Kneeboard folder, for example:
C:\Users\<your name>\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Kneeboard\F-5E-3
Enjoy!
