On this trial I was using the stock (1.03) version.

I was doing the excellent training mission of Mahuja (TA Tutorial)
I put my helo in the air, had control of it and turned on his radar with the REMRO.
Went to the ESM station and couldn't detect it at all. I was ablt to see the radiation of the other vessels around, but not my helo.

And yes I made sure the helo was pointing at me.
tried to switch it off and back on....still doesn't see anything

The helo is at 300 feet.

Anybody noticed that?
swear to god, seen the radiation of my own helo before.
Range of my helo was from 2 to 20NM from ownship.

Yep, something has gotten fouled in terms of ESM between the FFG and the FFG controlled helo, but it works normally under all other conditions (eg. the helo is radiating and can be detected on ESM by other platforms).

The sensors have to be enabled in the doctrine in order for them to show up on the FFG ESM, and then the ESM will show the helo is ALWAYS radiating, even when the radar is shut off using REMRO and other platforms cannot see it on ESM (as in LWAMI 3.02).

Thanks for bringing this up, I'm pretty confident this one is going to be resolved for 1.04. :up:
