Same here.  Just starting to learn LANTIRN, and have been confused by setting up up RIO seat, then returning to pilot seat and losing the tracked target.  Shouldn't Jester keep the same lock?

You have to designate it in the LANTIRN when in the backseat.

Then when you move to the front, if he loses it, tell him to track designation and he will go back to it.

Sorry I should have mentioned that I am using Voice Attack with VAICOM Pro and that's how you would do it there.

 The problem is the option is missing in jester menu

 

Im in the back seat.. get the target and lock it in LANTIRN all good.. then move to front seat.. i can see for 2 or 3 seconds the target in the VDI screen correctly and then Jester goes "searching to area track" and loses track.. i go to  jetster menu Q y there is the SNOW , the SWP, QMAP but no QDES opt

 

the funny part: I jump back to the sea rear set and press the hat right QDES and it recovers the target inmediatly .. so there is a target designated.. it doesnt work in the front seat

 

happens in multiplayer .. just tried in SP did the same and jester does show the QDES option and recovers target

I'm having the same problem, when i'm returning to the pilot seat the QDES is there for a few seconds then gone?

so i jump back into the RIO seat and Reselect the QDES, back in the pilot seat if you don't select the Jester QDES quick enough, once he starts to move the pod the QDES option is gone.

Fixed - set jester inactive in crew menu.

But will he still laser the target if inactive?

no i think you have to jump in the rio seat straight after bomb release and activate the laser.
