SA-3 TR SNR does not work

[Shadow KT]

Seems like the SA-3 does not work in the current patch.

 

With or without a P-19, the SA-3 TR SNR does not rotate, track or allows weapon fire.

Seems to be working for me, have a look at my mission

Seems like in my hurry to do the test, I have accidentally set the AI aircraft to invisible instead of immortal/invincible

My whole test started with the fact that the TR SNR would detect aircraft without a SR and other emitters, but it would not command launch, because the target is not in the FOV the track antenna and it won't rotate the antenna towards the target either.

 

This is an issue with all SAM systems which relay on a Search Radar to point them towards a target (SA-11/SA-3). The TR can function perfecly fine without a SR, but you cannot command them to rotate their radars, unless you can givea vehicle a new waypoint, so it faces in the desired way.

 

I will do some more tests and make a thread about that when I get free time

Hmm, might be worth a wishlist item - set initial turret rotation and have that apply to RADARs
