Additionally, the F10 (only in AOD[DOS]) will give you a camera view of the selected game object. Thus, you can ID an ship or plane at extreme range like 20km.
In CAOD it's called the "victim view", but I don't recall which hotkey is
associated with it. I'm having trouble with the forum cookies being blocked somehow so I have to relog in each time despite me telling the
forum to keep me logged in.
