Wish: period-appropriate GCI

[Ghostrider 147]

I’m really looking forward to the PTO assets pack and I can’t wait to use these new units to build realistic missions  

 

One thing I’m thinking about, however, is that we won’t have nice GCI radars to go along in a PTO WWII setting. It’d be really nice if some of the carriers or other vessels had functional GCI radars in-game. Radar-controlled intercepts proved really useful for the US Navy in WWII and it was commonly used in key battles as far as I’m aware, it’d be nice if we could properly simulate this in DCS!

Indeed. Would love for it too work on AI too. 

I made a fleet defence mission. I had 4 Corsair doing CAP over the fleet at 4500 feet.  Since the nerfing of the AI omniscience. The AI simply couldn't see and engage the japense torpedo bombers flying at 500 feet.
