problem with target I.D. in W.O.E.

Recommended Posts

So my problem is that usually when I select a radar target, I would get the information in the lower right hand corner of the screen giving the identity of the ground target and the closing distance. Now when I radar select and aquire the ground target, I get no more info in the lower right of the screen so I can't figure out if I have a ground radar as my potential killing target. Well...makes the game great in one aspect but would like to know where the game changed on me.

The ground radar wasn't modeled to acquire targets like the air to air radar,, but though that would be a neat mod ,,, but I did figure out that you can edit the radar range in the avionic file found in the aircraft folder that you want to fly,,, there's a thread that explains radar bombing and we worked out some tables if you want to do it the hard way

   Here is your free fall tables for. 555knts and mach 0.84   nautical miles are modeled in to the radar of your plane statued miles are displayed in your target information box ,and the higher you go the thinner the air so your air speed indicater will not show true speed, you confused yet..

 

 

1000ft =8sec=1.42 statued miles = 1.23nm

 

5000ft=17sec=3.02 statued miles = 2.62nm

 

10,000ft=24sec=4.26 statued miles= 3.7nm

 

20,000ft=35sec=6.2 statued miles = 5.4 nautical miles

 

I edit my radar for 3 miles,,  6 miles,,  10 miles,, 20 miles ect ect ,, I try to get aiming point half way down the scope,, alt and speed are critical,,, or you can fly level and blind to the target box and release to target info box reads the statue miles that I have set up in tables
