Ordering Wingman to RTB


Bob Morton

Recommended Posts

Hi - so I have started trying the campaign but I notice my wingman goes bingo fuel way ahead of me. I believe he drops his tanks when we go in close so he has less fuel than I do. He ends up crashing after a while. I did not find a way in the comms to get him to return to base or to go refuel in his own. Is this possible?

If I order him to tanker will he refuel on this own or do I need o be there too?

He doesn't need your help in AAR :)

Keep in mind that current AI aircraft is really bad at conserving the fuel so if you want to keep him alive, don't make sudden maneuvers, keep below MIL, don't make steep climbs and tell him to orbit if you don't need him for a while.

all what was said above + "advanced waypoint option in ME":

 

-prohibit use of afterburner (the AI will use it less often and most of the time when they really need to!)
