buceador Posted May 29, 2023 Posted May 29, 2023 Has anyone else had a problem with AWACS not reporting BRAA on bandits and no AWACS entry in COMMS menu? I set a sample mission - AWACS in USA coalition, F-16 in USA coalition - SU-30 in Russian coalition. F-16 and AWACS on 251 AWACS shows on RWR and visually. On mission start you hear AWACS calling in then nothing? No AWACS contact.trk

The logic behind it is that, if you tell him to circle, he will circle for the duration that you set him to (infinite). And once he's done with that, he will switch to the next task. So tell him to go to AWACS mode first before letting him do circles for all eternity. Also a few tips: Give him a lower altitude or less fuel. He won't be able to maintain 42'000ft with full fuel. Give him a higher starting speed. In the mission editor, you can either set Mach or GS (Ground speed). And if you give him a Ground Speed of 230 knots, that's equivalent to 110 KIAS. An E-3 will not be able to fly at 110 KIAS. 1
