Mission Building Question for FC3 Aircraft and AWACS

[granola1861]

Not sure if this is in the correct thread but in my mind it seems to be more of a FC3 question, so here goes!

 

I've built a Red Flag type mission and outfitted the Red team primarily with Russian aircraft. I have an A-50 trolling about for AWACS and I have no problem getting radar updates on my HDD from it. I have an F-15 on the Red side as well (for multiplayer) but it doesn't seem to be getting AWACS info (does the F-15 have this capability - to receive data from AWACS coverage??).

 

As a test I added an E-3 onto the Red side thinking that it would feed data to the F-15 but what actually happened was that myself (in a SU-27) got BRA information from both the A-50 and Sentry while the F-15 (multiplayer client) only received info from the A-50 and again no data.

 

Is there something I'm missing?

 

I have several troubleshooting items I plan on trying but if somebody can see an easy fix, please let me know.

 

Here are some of my troubleshooting ideas:

 

 

• Keep the E-3 and remove the A-50 and see if the F-15 will get data and the SU-27 will not.
  
• Test if an EWR will work rather than AWACS
  
• Keep the E-3 and add an EWR somewhere on the ground.
  
• Test the mission in single player with the F-15 and see if it gets data from the A-50, E-3, both, or none at all.
  
• Convince my buddy that the F-15 is good and all but the Flanker is where it's at. :pilotfly:
  

 

Any ideas are appreciated and thanks in advance.

In the F-15 it is only possible to get radio calls. No radar sharing.

Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure. There was nothing about it in the F-15's documentation so I was getting suspicious that it didn't have that capability.
