Otherwise, you'll just get an acknowledgement from BDU that they received the report. I've had several reports acknowledged, but have yet to see the flyboys make an appearence.

^ just about hit the nail on the head
Airstrike cfg controls those variables and an easy one to mess up
I believe there is also a time frame between reports - 2 hours IIRC
Meaning if send one at 1100hr cannot send another till at least 1300hr
At least ,I
think 2 hours is the set time
There is also a chance enemy aircraft will respond to your message being sent
