The comment about the patriot needing to be complex to defeat threats yet simple for the enlisted to use made me laugh. I am enlisted Army, presently deployed in Iraq and knowing how the Army is I could totally see the brass asking the designers of the system to make it "joe friendly"

Ha i just noticed that, they all say unit 1 of 1... do the patriot components need to be given different numbers in order to work together ? As for the radar not being aligned correctly.. I dont know about that, the radar physically moves in relation to my position in the sky.

I placed 4 launchers in a circle and have the CP and radar in the middle. Could I place a bunch of radars over the map and randomly place the launchers and a CP for total map coverage or do they have to be within a few yards of eachother ?

So the Patriot doesnt actively scan in all directions ? That giant blue circle that appears when you place the system on the map is deceiving then; I guess thats just showing you its range.

I set up the Patriot Launcher, Command Post, and Radar yet do not get fired upon by the system. I have tried being at all altitudes and distances from the system but still, do not get fired upon. I have placed other AA units such as avengers or stings in the area and they engage me automatically. Whats the deal ?
