serverandenforcer Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I know a lot of people have run into scenarios where either they or their wingman accidentally fired an IRM at another friendly. For wingman, it's more common because you can't really be certain who your really locking up an IRM with. However, I just ran across a scenario where my wingman locked up another wingman with an AIM-120C (an AHM). He fired it and blew the other guy away. Now that I find very suspicious. I'm really beginning to think that there is some kind of code that allows treason in this game. Quote
+Dave Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 No treason is not written into the code, its dumb AI. That is why I send them to play by themselves while I play Air Rambo. Quote

Guest Saganuay82 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Treason code...................lololol. Quote
Emp_Palpatine Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I've been once shot down by my wingman. He fired a Sidewinder who find his way to my plane. I do sometime do some friendly fire. :D But it's mainly BVR errors, since we don't have IFF. Quote
serverandenforcer Posted August 24, 2007 Author Posted August 24, 2007 Sidewinders is understandable since that's an IRM, but an AMRAAM?!!! Quote
Redddevil911 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 (edited) I think the one wingman was sleeping with the others wingmans wife, wearing his slippers and seating in his easy chair and that's why it got his ass shoot off! I could be wrong, but i dont think so! Edited August 24, 2007 by Redddevil911 Quote
+Dave Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Sidewinders is understandable since that's an IRM, but an AMRAAM?!!! The AI locked up the target that came un front of him and punched it off. You can do that in boresight and air combat mode very easily. It does lock up the first thing the radar sees. In this case it was his the plane who happened to be on the same side. Quote

serverandenforcer Posted August 25, 2007 Author Posted August 25, 2007 (edited) Good god scissors, that's just wrong I didn't know that Dave. Since I never shoot it out in those radar modes, I never experienced such incidents. I fight and fly in search mode only. Really don't know what the benefits are in using the other modes.

I use both modes alot. Normal radar mode for BVR and boresight for medium WVR fights (9.0nm to 5.0nm.) Falcon Quote
