Neal Tanksley Sams at enemies.. Mike Downey Subject: Allied sams in Red Flag. This is more info on Allied Sams in Red Flag.. Allied Sams are great fun in Red Flag. In attempting some "escape window" tactics against the opposition forces. (1 falcon vs 8 mig19s) I can usually defeat a few with missles, then maybe 1 with guns, but then I usually turn for home base with 2 or 3 mig19's hot on my tail! (I don't always make it to this point....) Well, the fun continues when you speed over your base airport and look down at all the Vulcans, stingers, and AAA waiting for the unsuspecting Mig19's. (they will try to follow you anywhere...) (I don't use the Roland Launchers because I want the action to be close) It is great fun to watch the formation of little green aircraft scatter as AAA puffs and stingers reach up to thier targets. While they are distacted, flaming, or generally losing bits and peices of their aircraft, The aggressive pilot can turn into them and extract another victory! - Neal Tanksley (Tin-man) tanksley@ptdcs2@intel.com ------------------------------- From: Mike Downey Subject: O'grady rescue...

Yes, our sams will shoot at enemy aircraft, but there is a catch... Falcon only calculates AAA and sam info for the immediate area around your plane... Sort of like a kill box... So if there are enemy planes (or friedly for that matter.) flying over a sam site far away from you, then it will do nothing, however unless you change your view to that aircraft... Have you ever sent in some planes for a sead mission in front of you, and have them do nothing, unless you change your view to their plane? wherever you are looking will become the new active kill box, and then AAAand sam activity will become active at that point. ------------------------------- [[ End of digest Volume 8 : Issue 1 ]]
