Cannot save mission after removing an aircraft from map

[legitscoper]

How to reproduce?

1. Load mission with aircraft

2. Remove any aircraft

3. Mission editor bugs out, makes it impossible to save the game, corrupts the save, makes impossible to click on other aircrafts, "show models" button does not work, as attached in video. Also, save icon bugs

I'm attaching the mission file which I used. I tried removing one of the F-16s, testing if it is same for other aircrafts.

Edit: removing apache, or hornet on Prince Hassan, same effect. Seems like this is the only airfield that has problems

Edit2: removing apache from King Hussein Air College doesn't crash the editor. Removing F-16 from KHAC, Tiyas, or Ramat David also doesn't crash it.

Edit3: Also I can't even get rid of the aircrafts by swapping them to another unit, and then going back to original one, still same issue

Edit4: found this in log:

Same goes when I try to remove other aircraft with datalink, like A-10C, also on Prince Hassan
