[1706] [DB 512] Stingers bite above stated ceiling

Database says ceiling for stingers is 16K. But they are effective above that level. Observe mission Brnhlm ASuW where two flights are set to attack just above that level

Also relevant seems to be this post https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopi ... r#p5223802

The stingers are sitting on an elevation of 200-400ft and the Floggers are flying at 16k-16,400ft ASL. If you put them at 16,500ft or above they don't get fired at. This is WAD

Actually they do get shot at 16.5K (seldom but they do!). 16.6K seems to be the safe alt. Strange as the Stingers are at 400ft. Let it run and see for yourself

EDIT1: They are still vulnerable at 16.6K.
