RADAR and buildings/objects.

[Focha]

Hi all,

 

Does the RADAR (missiles, aircrafts) gets blocked by buildings and other obstructions like trees in DCS?

 

I normally fly in NOE with helicopters, masking in buildings and trees, but I always get hit by a AMRAAM or Phoenix... even if I am really low on the ground.

 

So, does it block it and prevents the locks or not?

 

Thank you.

 

Regards

Trees will not stop the radar lock. Now the tree can block the missile physically and cause it to crash, but it will not break the lock. Buildings are probably the same way, I havent tested specifically however. Also, even if they did work its not gonna stop a Viper from 40kft throwing AMRAAMs at you from above. Best bet is to simply stay away from areas where enemy fighters have not been cleared.
