correct as is radar and data link track issues

[dutchili]

In this track I loose the primary data link track to one of the targets for a reason I do not understand. Can somebody explain?

I also fail to lock the Mig 29 that is right ahead of me. Can somebody explain?

1st of all, set radar antenna to correct position. The ACQ (acquisition cursor) has two numbers, set antenna to the height that the bandit will be between those 2 numbers. In your case, the bandit was at Angles 33, your ACQ was between angles 19 and 1! Those two numbers mean the lowest and the highest elevation where radar antenna is looking. You can adjust with Radar Antenna elevation knob (in-game controls: RDR Cursor up, down, left, right, you can also use axis). And you can use Bars, to change the difference between those 2 numbers (1B, 2B, 4B).

Why AWACS didn`t see the bandit I don`t know. Maybe was in its blind spot, that happens (when in turn or something).

Thanks for the help. The ACQ settings helped for a target at my flight level, but not for a bogey at 7000 ft while i was at 30000ft, bogey was hot.

Also still lost PDT on my wingman while he was constantly flying at 30000 ft.
