Mission 01 Mastiff not showing on HSD (Spoilers)

[B.B.Blender]

During the whole process of escorting, I don't see the green friendly dot on my HSD, for the most of the time;
As Mastiff called out Mud and Bug called Mud 6 west to Mastiff, I have no idea where to look for the radar signal, either on my HSD or HAD page.
But Mastiff did showed up on my HSD for approximately 30 sec, that I quickly used that location to start pinpoint SA-6.

I knew there are unfixed bugs in FIWOS, in mission 01 where all sword flights don't how up on HSD, it was said a map bug made by map devs.
I'm wondering if this is the same cause?

Anyway, I had just finished FIWOS, and starting LOWOS, it's been a great campaign so far, please do take a look into this issue.
Thank you for such great campaign experiences and keep up the good work.

Glad you're enjoying!

Mastiff aren't on TACAN and data link as the Mirage F1 doesn't have this capability.  You have to try and stay visual with them, or use the radar, or if all else fails just follow the flight plan and speed (mentions this in the briefing).

Flight not appearing on the HSD is a Viper bug, but do long as you set your DL correctly they will appear after a while, just takes some time.
