reported earlier PATRIOT system not intercepting missiles

[antiload]

HI,

After checking the Patriot SAM system it appears to not be intercepting missiles. I've tried this on a few maps with the same results.

Please can this be looked into? The S10 is fine and accurately shoots down missiles.

theres been a fix that doesnt seem to have made it into the patch yet, from another thread elsewhere

After further testing it would appear that the Patriot system is shooting down cruise missiles but not the scuds. Although it is pumping out lots of missiles.

Yea, that's part of the problem: shouldn't shoot more than two missiles per target. It also shouldn't fire until it calculates a sufficient Pk

Scuds are it's meat& potatoes, but perhaps with the guidance update we will see improvements on all fronts

 

I don't think it's modeled, but if an intercept will occur outside of a valid engagement zone, the system won't fire.

 

If a scud is within a valid engagement zone but not threatening a defended asset, a system wouldn't fire (this is doctrinal rather than system limitation) . I *know* that aspect isn't modelled
