_Spad_ Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I am currently trying to complete mission 14 and both times I've flown it I have gotten the "Thunderstorm" call, failing the mission. Not too sure what I'm doing wrong as: -I'm pushing at the correct time, flying in formation with the S-3 (on the left side). -I didn't turn my radar on until I was feet wet in the Persian Gulf, flying at 900ft. -Remained under 1,000ft the whole way. Only thing it might be is the AI. When we hit WP4 and initiate the turn into Iran, the AI flights immediately climb to around 2,500ft. Could the AI be triggering the "Thunderstorm" call? Or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Are you using automatic startup by any chance? Because IIRC it does something with the radar. The AI stupidity starts after the call parameters are checked.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Now that I think of it, I don't remember ever getting a prompt to dump fuel to signal my flight to switch their radars on. As soon as I was settled ay 900ft in formation over the water, I think I just switched it on. Edited January 29, 2022 by _Spad_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 There is no prompt IIRC - it is mentioned in the briefing and you should remember to do it let me know if it works & if it doesn't, please send the track file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
