I'm not sure this is a bug, but hopefully somebody can advise...

 

The second F-14 mission (ship stuck off Iranian coast, enemy boats & chopper in the area, etc)

 

I've tried it a few times, but I can't seem to find anything to do. First of all, the amount of fuel provided is barely enough to fly to the disabled ship and back. I can resolve that by refueling before taking off from the carrier.

 

I follow waypoints 1 and then 2 to get to the ship. I spot the enemy chopper, but as per instructions, I don't shoot as I'm not threatened. A Tomcat doesn't feel threatened by a twirlycopter, dammit.

 

Nothing else happens. My wingman runs out of fuel very shortly after arriving at the ship, and the rumoured Mig 23s don't show up.

 

I've watched the TacView replay, and there are no other flying enemies. Is there something I should be doing to trigger some actions?

There's already a thread on that mission here (and a temporary fix posted on page 2):

Annoyed by my posts? Please consider donating. Once the target sum is reached, I'll be off to somewhere nice I promise not to post from. I'd buy that for a dollar!

FYI you can get an aggressive reaction from the enemy warship steaming into the area by flying too close, which subsequently gives you licence to gun down their chopper buddies!
