investigating Radar losing lock way too easy in all modes.

1st AUTO mode is like switch every second, from HPRF to MPRF to achive best lock, there is no "random".

2nd Again, again and again im not going to repeat my self that P mode is complete joke, you can't achive lock more than 15-20km, even 20km is HUGE risk of lock breaking it's self, i don't know in what world did you get 35km lock on HOT target. Even in Wags video is mentioned some distance of 8nm.

Simply radar is bugged it needs to be fixed and give it more power, to me it makes no sense to have 120km+ range on HPRF and 15km on MPRF, simple as that.

Were you at low altitude? MPRF suffers below 3k meters 

In addition coop is perfect for MPRF because IRST will likely have lock when it drops. Probably why when fully implemented coop mode will lock radar to MPRF

Pretty much I feel auto mode that gives me the most problems. Usually what I do for success is Head on mode for the bvr engagement...once the target cranks, and we are under 20km, i'll switch to pursuit...that usually maintains lock. 

 

Part of what I had to get used to was the scale change between head on and pursuit, and that I need to make sure my antenna position is properly set. especially with pursuit mode, as you can easily have the dish point way off to the heavens or into the dirt, when you want it just in front of you.

It's helped a bunch right now for me on contention, and I've been getting more R-27R kills
