Wouldn't it be cool if downed/rescued enemies could 'leak' information that you could use... like convoy positions or short term naval/air plans? That'd rock! |
You can pick them up mission or no mission. I was waiting in ambush for the Leyte TF. Then I picked up the largest plane group ever, about 50 planes flying in formation. Turned out they were US carrier planes. I had my cams on and got to watch a large strike on the incoming jap TF. Finally attacked it, sunk a few and it went on. I then saved over 20 downed pilots.
They should show up as contacts if you have them on. If not, the crew will spot them. Look for the pink smoke, get close, aim your binocs on them and the lifevest icon will light up..click and save them
