[REPORTED] Conflicting friendly/hostile datalink IFF Report for same target

What are the letters that appear with the tgt tracks typically when the IFF seems to be messed up ? Those red guys are actually friendlies btw.

I've seen those letters above red datalink tracks (of friendlies) in the instant action PG mission where you bomb the warehouse. No idea what those designations above the track symbols are so here for the answer as well.

Possible additional info: The guys on the 104th seem to have discovered a correlation between F16 and F18s being contributors to Link16 on the same side.

 

 

 

They have separated them on their server, and the issue does not appear to occur any longer on that server. I can confirm that I did NOT have the issue on their server since they made that change.

 

 

The issue still there even when F-16 and F-18 on the opposite side.

Here's what I mentioned about the JF-17 and F-16 datalink interaction (will post this in the JF-17 section as well)

 

Any time a contact is detected by the JF-17, the F-16 no longer sees it on datalink

 

The server track is the JF-17, the other track is the F-16

 

Thanks for the tracks and vid.

Sounds the same issues as https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=257305 [Conflicting friendly/hostile datalink IFF Report for same target ]
I don't think it is.

From my understanding the DL sometimes acts inconsistenly. It could give you only one bandit appeared and the others did not while in fact it should, considering its inside AWACS LoS and the bandit was not in notching. Its hit and miss so pretty hard to track.

Can confirm this, I cannot trust DL at all at the moment, always need to IFF first. And sometimes I see myself marked red on the radar. Since I get it from the beginning of the round I try to load a short record soon.

This made me shoot 3 friendlys already.. it’s a serious bug

Even when I pressed TMS left to check for IFF additionally I had a friendlies display as hostile here and there and killed them. It is indeed a serious bug. Theres rarely time to IFF scan ten times before deciding to kill or not.

We've just tried adding the F-16 and F/A-18C back on to the same side in the 104th server and this bug is causing real issues.

 

 

Understand that it is already reported, would be hugely grateful if it can get some high priority attention as the only solution around it having both these aircraft on opposing sides.

 

 

No bueno for NATO bros who want to fly together online.

I think they are still after a track that shows it. Any I can make all end up being long and too big.

Confirming on different Coop Server. Just checked yesterday. Bandit green instead of red, got almost shut down because of this reason. Also Friendly show up red. I rechecked the singnal 2-3 times and suddenly they turned green. No friendly fire, because i was patienced. Sry no track File.
