FanOfALF Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hi! I'm trying to fly some ship-strike missions with wingman or 4-ship, but I can't get them to engage ships. My radio is set correct, when I make order to engage ships (key F7 in the flight-part), but nothing happens. I don't even get a respond from them. What's wrong or what do I do wrong? There is a mission in the campaign with 4-ship, I can't get them to engage ships, nor in missions I create myself. Please can someone explain to me what's wrong. :helpsmilie: Regards FanOfALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLTeo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 It could be this issue: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=200624 Try giving Mavericks to your wingmen instead and see what happens, it's not ideal because the range is so short but it's better than them flying around doing nothing.

Vannipo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Haha, I just wanted to open a thread right now, where I wanted to ask: Is it possible to get AI Viggens to attack ships with RB-04/15 (AI-Version)? Cause I am trying and trying, but my AI Viggens won't attack the ships. Maybe it's just not possible right now, and I'm wasting lifetime again by finding out, whether this feature is missing or it's just me. :) Edited July 17, 2018 by Vannipo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'ts only me who can deliver the RB-04. Feels like the others inte the flight are just there for show. :( Regards FanOfALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank's TLTeo for link to the thread and the advise. I'm afraid though to get too near the enemy ships, but will try it. :) Regards FanOfALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally until this is fixed I have settled on me carrying anti-ship missiles, 2 carrying 2 Rb75Ts, a jammer pod and a countermeasures pod, and 3/4 carrying 4 Rb75Ts.

That's a good idea letting some of them carrying jammer and countermeasures pods and Rb75:s. Will try that. Thank's! Regards FanOfALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vannipo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 But there is no RB75 AI Version. Does it work with the usual RB75? Or the T/B? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLTeo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 But there is no RB75 AI Version. Does it work with the usual RB75? Or the T/B? They launch all of them against ships without a problem, it's only the dedicated anti-ship missiles that have a separate version for whatever reason. For anti-ship stuff I always have them carry the T since it has the largest warhead, and even then it obviously isn't quite as effective as more specialized weapons.

Vannipo Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Sadly, my KI pilots get shot, cause they have to fly too close with the RB75 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanOfALF Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 Sadly, my KI pilots get shot, cause they have to fly too close with the RB75 :D How do you make your wingman deliver the Rb 75? Don't know what I'm doing wrong, can't get my wingman to deliver the Rb 75 either. Trying different radiocommands, but wingman won't deliver. F7 - Engage ships - no respons. F1 - Engage enemy (or somethin like that) - respons "not able". Regards FanOfALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vannipo Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I was talking about ordinary AI pilots. I don't know, how an AI wingman behaves in that case. Sorry. Can u specify something like "Attack with -> Rockets"? Maybe he needs getting babysitted :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just "Flight- engage ships" worked for me the last time I tried it (maybe a week ago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanOfALF Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 I still can't get the wingman (or flight) to deliver weapons on ships. The radio is set up as i should be. I'm using radio command F7 - Engage Ships. Happens nothing when I push F7, not even a respons from my wingman/flight. Other commands such as Engage - Ground Targets - I at least get at respons "Unable". What's wrong? I can't find any assignment in the control assignment list. There is no assignment called Engage Ships. When I try to assign something els to F7, it won't even find that key. But when I scroll the list its there, but it won't show if I just press F7. Please, do someone know what's wrong? :( I really need help on this. It's frustrating not to be able to use wingman/flights in anti-ship missions.
