How to task an AFAC on randomised targets (i.e. targets that might not exist...)

[Sabre-TLA]

This is really good work to figure this out.

 

I've been playing with the FBM and getting frustrated because I can't find the targets (you know white tanks against white buildings and trees - I believe this will be fixed in the next patch and yes I have been playing with the gain, contrast and brightness settings on the MFCD).

 

In the mean time I've been adding AFACs and assigning the targets directly in the ME but having them pickup random units would be great and add to the replayability of the missions (you never know what targets they will find nor where).

 

I've had no problems communicating with the JTACs (I use 131mhz) and the red triangles are showing up on the TAD nicely.

 

Thanks again for documenting your findings.
