Mar Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Did you lock him when you had line of sight and then he dove behind the mountain? Most radar systems will use prediction search for a few seconds before giving up the track as a lost cause. Otherwise, no of course it's not normal.

SilentGun Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 no I locked him when he was behind the mountain. and just a little bit ago I went back to the 104th and (I didn't experience this) but AF linebacker got shot through a mountain.

Frostie Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I wouldn't call this Su27 specific, more like terrain related. But i'd wager it is simply some desync issue, these things happen.

freebirddz Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I confirm this issue; i experienced this for several times. I locked the target with BVR and still locking him also behind mountains! I was really surprised! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickexists Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I had the same thing today in an f-15, I was also able to get an aim-9 lock through the mountain from 20nm away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuge Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I can confirm I've seen this happen as well. Both with EOS and with the F15 radar. Rare but happened. And with the recent patches only. http://www.104thphoenix.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
