Solution razo+r Posted March 12, 2021 Solution Share Posted March 12, 2021 Unit Air Defense Searchlight on / off. It turns the Air Defense Search lights on or off. Kind of self-explanatory in the name itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger71 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It's the WW2 searchlights, that can turn on through triggers (enemy planes entering a specific zone for example). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All military implement AD into their branches. For your Dutch army, it would be Korps Luchtdoelartillerie. You should have looked it up before posting this in bug section.

Because I spent 5 years working with the military (as a contractor) and only one of those terms actually make sense, but only without the hyphen. As written, nothing you wrote is used in any context. Where did you find/make up these words from? Edited March 13, 2021 by Dagger71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
