US and UK QF 3.7 AA Gun still not firing also on stable 2.8

This problem, for some inexplicable reason closed in this thread:

https://forum.dcs.world/topic/291016-qf-37-aa-gun-not-firing-since-27816140/

is still very much present in the latest stable 2.8 version of DCS world.........

Thanks Flappie, Noted....

Though the problem remains, namely,

US and UK QF 3.7 AA Guns are still not firing, even on stable 2.8.

I am merely bringing the attention to this bug.

8 Months ago an alllied director unit was added to DCS to enable the QF3.7 to fire on axis aircraft. It is under CATEGORY Air Defense - TYPE Allies Rangefinder (DRT). It must be part of the same group as your QF3.7 batteries. Here is an example mission with it working. Cheers

Hi SUNSTAG, thanks... yes of course, stupid of me.. Just like the AAA Kdo.G.40 required for the Nazi flak to shoot.

A bit confusing though that all the other AAA (non flak),  like the Bofors etc do not require addition units to work,

both on the allied and the nazi side..

So I tried this as well with the German AAA and had the Kdo.G.40 and wouldn't fire at the Allies that were at 16000 asl. maybe I'm just doing something wrong

I have tested the 88s in the latest Open Beta and found no issues. I have attached a simple sample mission, showing them working as intended. Also don't forget, there are unit templates available to use in your missions, which will take the guess work out of the type of units required within your group to have them work correctly. I hope that helps. Cheers
