Issue with Walleye?

[Tj1376]

OK, I am plum out of ideas. Prior to the latest 2.7 patch, I could easily deploy walleyes on target without any issue.

 

See example here, showing an attack of a ship with the walleye:

In the good example (above), notice that the WE symbol in the hud the moment you select walleye is unboxed (indicating the walleye can be released whenever you depress the weapon release button.)

 

Post this latest patch, now I am having issues with WE unboxing in the HUD (and thus the walleye wont release:)

Are there any tips here on why WE is not unboxing in the HUD (what parameters are not in check for weapon release?) I'd like to be able to modify my approach to make this work, but am stumped.

 

Any help is appreciated.

I just tested it and it doesn't seem weird to me. When it's coupled with the AWW-13, you can release whenever or when you're in range of the designation and then guide it.

If you're dropping without the AWW-13, the seeker needs to be locked onto something first, like with the AGM-65F.
