Hi,
I've been having the following problem more often whenthere's a mission where I can't see the enemies on the map (Multiplayer, for example). But it already happened other times in offline created missions.
As you can see on the screens below, the radar screen below indicates a threat that is getting closer. That is also indicated by AWACS. But no matter the setting on the hud I can't make the radar see the target, let alone lock into it.
I had targets coming head on from over 100km down to less than 10km and the radar can't see it anywhere.
I tried moving the antena to the sides, a notch, two or three up or down, changing the pulse emission, changing from Single target to TWS, changing from radar to EO, I just can't see any indication of a threat on the hud.
I had situations where a bandit was hot 10 km away directly in front of me and on the same altitude (as mentioned by AWACS as he was getting closer)and was moving all the way down to less than 4 km, only when I visually spoted him and changed to vertical scan or helmet scan I was able to lock onto him. there wasn't any jamming in these situations.
It is more common for me to spot friendlys (two rows of dashes) but it is getting more and more rare to be able to see any bogey.
What am I doing wrong?
