Mr_sukebe Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I don't know how to add a TACAN to an existing airbase. I have however found a workaround. Park a tanker at the airfield. Give it a tasking of nothing (as otherwise it will fly away). Enable the TACAN on the tanker. Job done.

Andy1966 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 the TACAN is hard coded( I think) to some airfields on the southern portion of the map. (in Georgia mostly) the north portion uses PRMG, the Russian Beacon/ILS system. There may be a mod, or .Lua script that would do it, I don't know. However, If you have Mig-21 it(PRMG) is hard coded to the module, so M3 added it to all airfields, but they only work for mig. Some modules in Mission editor, such as the Stennis, you can add TACAN in mission editor in waypoint options.

Mad_Max2 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Park a vehicle right in front of the tanker. Keeps it from moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicdoubloon Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 alternatively lower the fuel of the tacan plane to 0%. That means it won't be started up and looks a little bit more realistic to an airbase than a plane perpetually powered up. Even at 0% it will broadcast tacan :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habu_69 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Set the tanker with no fuel and UNCONTROLLED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backy 51 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Look at the beacons.lua file. You should be able to place a TACAN anywhere you want. Just realize it could get overwritten by the next update. Just add it back if that happens. I don't need no stinkin' GPS! (except for PGMs :D) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad_Max2 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 TCN still runs with 0% fuel :huh:... Good to know! Ground power maybe? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
