Understand, I figured maybe the new shrike development could be playing a part in why things have become unstable. Appreciate your guys hard work!

For anyone having this issue, I was on the A4E Discord last night and this is a common issue and seems to be on ED side. After some testing last night, out of about 30 shrikes launched in an isolated test mission between 2 aircraft, we had 1 track. Hopefully this will get fixed soon. I do have a post open in weapon bugs report currently. Maybe @BIGNEWY will see this as well.

If i cant get anything figured out tonight i will post a track file here.

I never tried them before the F4 so I will uninstall the F4 when I get home and see if that fixes it.

So first question is ive tried both, waiting until i am locked and even launched on and also preemptively launching. Second question, ive tried both very close (within 2-3 miles) and far (around 10-12 miles). Nothing seems to make a difference. Im starting too think its some sort of file problem on my end but as far as mods go i only have the A-4E mod, VSN standalone F-4, uh-60L and hercules. I am not using any weapon mods or tech mods.

I am having an issue with the shrike when using the A-4E and the F-4C mods. I've tried a few different radars including the SA6, SA2, SA11, Gun Dish and Fire Can and I've tried both a custom mission and tried using them in MP servers. When I fire them, weather it be with a good tone or just toward an active radar, they don't track at all. They come off the rail and just fly in a mild downward arc into the ground. I loaded in an AI F4 with a shrike and it fires and tracks to a Fire Can just fine. I also haven't seen anyone post about this as far as all the people that use the weapon with the Skyhawk on ECW so I think this is somehow isolated to me. I know the hit rate is poor but that isn't what is happening. There is just no attempt to track at all. I'm just looking for some advice on weather I am just dumb and doing something wrong or where I should look too attempt a fix. In the A4i have the pilons selected with master arm on and i have a good base tone and I am getting a change in tone. Nothing makes a difference. Thank you for any help you all might have with this.

STOP TRYING TO TURN THE E INTO A DOGFIGHTER! But seriously, I dont know how many times I need to say this. If you want C performance, just fly the C model. Its in the game. Or if you want to drop bombs and then go to the merge and dominate your opponents, learn the Viper.

I am also experiencing this same issue, however my buddy is also flying using MT and is not. The F-15E is the only module this is effecting for me.

So over the weekend I noticed that it did this when I decided to change liveries while taxing so i changed liveries and requested the rearm on the move. After this the comm menu was bugged like we've stated. Haven't had time to test to see if this consistently bugs it or not but may be at least one trigger.

Yep same here, had it had a couple times in a cold started jet on greyflag.

Yep i have also had this same issue. It also seems that it can be spawn to spawn because ive had it both work and not on the same multiplayer server in the same day. I did not know about the direct command work around. Thanks!

Unfortunately that is not enough to counter the increased weight and the increased aerodynamic drag caused by the cfts. If you want to run cap and sling missiles at mach 2+ just fly the c model. otherwise the E model even with its metaphorical ball and chain is a force to be reckoned with in the BVR arena.

Best thing i did was totally ditched the lights and practiced until i got a site picture that i could reliable reproduce.

Yep thats what i meant, sorry for not bein more clear!
