Update 092807
All is well with Map A over LAN connection (MP) except for one thing, and that is, the Big Bad Bear is emitting. In qualification testing he can be picked up on ESM, but I don’t think there is a way to shut it off or disable using scripts.
Also, for heavier defenses, I need some RU surface platforms capable of deploying sonobuoys, but can’t seem to find any. The USNI reference makes no mention of any RU surface equipped with sonobuoys, but I guess if said platform is equipped with the KA-27 Helix, it too is also capable of sonobuoy deployment.
I think there is nothing that can be done about the bear emitting, and I guess ill dig a little deeper in finding the surface platform(s) I need.

ya later
