How do you get a kill without a hit?

[slybelle]

On my last mission, I was ordered to attack a ship. I did so with a combo of Rockeyes and guns. During the mission, it looked like I sunk the ship and I saw the blasts after my Rockeyes hit. I also received a message saying my mission was completed.

 

I head home and land. I then look at the stats screen and it shows me dropping 6 Rockeyes and shooting a number of rounds from the gun. However, under the hit column, it shows I scored zero hits with either weapon, but under the rockeye section, shows I had one kill. How can I kill something without hitting it? Or is it possibly because my weapon exploded close enough to the target without actually hitting it?

 

None of my wingman fired a weapon so it was not them who destroyed it.

 

Thoughts?

You've answered your own question... Looks like we have a winner!

The Rockeye didn't hit the target directly but the submunitions did. You can also score kills by things in the blast radius of the weapon that doesn't actually hit the target.

Like the wrench said, make em fly into the ground like I did last night in multiplay, lol, or an "uncontroled landing into terrain"

The scorekeeper in these sims never could count, it's been like that from the beginning. We refer to him as the SK, is probably the village idiot. Just pay him no mind.

Very easy on the ANW, especially if you want the other guy to become part of the mountains.

Here's one way to get a kill with out a hit registering...

 

 

 

And this is all the damage I received.

 

The JF-17 was destroyed, I took one on the chin and not a shot was fired...

The problem is when you loose all your wingmen in the same fashion...
