[NEED TRACK REPLAY]Contacts invisible on radar but tracking possible


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't have a track as i was in a long MP session, but sometimes my TWS radar didnt show the bricks. However, i could still select and interact with the bricks normally. They start showing once they are bugged.

Tracks and system tracks were invisible. I could find their location by turning on MIDS temporarily, or by pressing TMS to system track all of them.

 

Also, the TDC could follow and invisible system track. The TDC was moving following the track correctly, but the brick itself was invisible.

Did they disappear shortly after bugging them? From my testing it seemed they haven't included a timing-out track symbology (blinking track) and it was just making them invisible instead.

I noticed something similar. I had TWS and two system tracks, went STT on one and then pressed TMS Aft. I got a blank FCR scope, but when pressing TMS Right, it bugged a contact and after pressing TMS Right again, it bugged the other.

 

Both contacts were invisible on the FCR and only showed up as red triangles with the circle around them when bugged (I had AWACS).

 

I switched to RWS, immediately saw the two squares on my scope (search targets) and realized that my radar did detect the contacts, but TWS wasn't displaying anything, until I bugged them.

I’ve noticed this on a few occasions as well. I’ve got the contact locked on the HUD but the contact on the FCR has disappeared. I’ll try and get a track file.

Negative.

I have no tracks at all.

RWS shows the contact, switch to TWS and it's gone. Can be repeated any number of times, with or without MIDS.

 

The contact is still there and you can interact with it, you just can't see it until it's bugged.

Way I've had it is that without using the datalink , even if there is no need for having it on. You will be missing a bunch of stuff when trying to lock and select targets. For example you STT someone , they dont appear on the radar screen but you can see them on your HUD and your still tracking them.

 

Having the datalink system activated gets rid of the issue.
