mahuja -> RE: Radars vs ground targets (b818) (4/21/2016 9:37:34 PM)

AFAICT this affects ALL ground targets that aren't MAJOR installations, and all airborne ground search radars including those mounted on fighters.
The E-8 is just the crown example; if that doesn't work, nothing works. And the things you won't detect include sam sites that are not (yet) emitting their radars. (Non-radar SAMS thus become a nightmare to deal with until you run them dry, or if you happen to have the appropriate (non-radar) equipment.)
In other words, this will severely cripple the balance of many existing missions. By the same token, missions made while broken will be unbalanced the other way when fixed.
One mission affected by it is "Tempest Marlin, 2016". (aka "Transgressor Marlin (2016).scen", but that's a peeve for another day)
As of right now, you need to have the uav or other ground IRST (luckily you have it) zig-zag to search for the convoy before you can do much, and then you need to "happen upon" (spoiler alert) the coastal artillery before it sinks your ships.
Worse, I remember this worked the previous time I played it, during the 1.11 RCs. For whatever my temporal memory is worth, meaning it needs to be verified.
Missions where everything is at sea, should not be affected.
