Mobile radar

[Midway]

so you want someone to sit there and hold your hand, when you just as easily can find a fight by yourself? Its not hard to find a fight without making somone spawn to a spawn poiint and get killed multiple times becaus eyou dont knwo how to read a bardar.
Hey if you want to see pointless items added to game thats cool, but really I dont see it haing much inpact to the game.

  You see no value in radar to fighter pilots and bombers?

Why have field radar then, and why are enemy cons so keen on knocking it out as, very often, a first target?

Your argument is lacking an appreciation for radar.  Hard to convince you then.  I always rely on radar when available and would certainly appreciate someone providing a temporary solution when needed.

Midway if they are dropping the dar there is a reason for it, I appreciate radar but what you are sugggesting is to up a radar van at a base that has lost its dar because it is being attack, well how long do you thing a radar van will last in a horde? think about it. Its pointless if a field is flashing I KNOW its under attack I dont need measals to show me that.

Then again I dont tool arounsd in a Spit ALL the time so I have the fuel and Speed to find figths furrther out and loiter in area for a bit.

I have thought about it.  Upping a mobile radar and trying to hide it would be fun, at least for me.  One of the things I like about GVing is the hide and go seek aspect.  I am sure I could hide and you would find it difficult to find me.  I can't always concentrate on fighting and this would let me help out providing needed intel.  I'm sure pilots would appreciate it as well.   I would.

My Spitfire has plenty of range.  I chased bombers five sectors the other day.  Up a Spitire MK VIII with 100% fuel and DT and take a look at how much flight time that gives you.  That is one of the main reasons I fly the Spitfire MK VIII, the range it gives me... It's climb rate, turning ability, and cannons being the others.

I dont belive you would actually up this it's not a spit. You know it will be  a hanger queen. If you cant tell when a base is under attack I cant help you.

Wrong again.   Check my stats and you'll see I up plenty of other GVs and aeroplanes, including goons and M3s.

Under which shade? POadding your "up" status by uppinga plane and bailing after wheels up dont prove ,much

[Midway]

Under which shade?

I only have one account.   Ingame name "who".

Btw, the mobile dar could be a load-out on a goon or M3 if a new vehicle is too time consuming to make.  In reading about mobile radar solutions it sounds like it did not necessarily require a special aeroplane or vehicle, just equipment.

Death traps. They couldnt have the same range as a feild dar IRL so it would need to be scalled back to probably half a feild dar so they are pointless.

60 mile range in real life, shorten it to 20 or 30 miles in AH would work fine and be vey useful.

the field dar is at 25 so Id say 12, also  they would have to put  dar on the CA's  in the TG's aswell.

[Nathan60]

Also how would hills and mountains affet a ground lvl radar that isnt a tower?

So now you support it, but only if it is given a range that makes it nearly useless?  

20 or 30 mile diameter would wok fine, be useful, and many would appreciate it.

Look down shoot down radar is a relatively modern invention.  Plane based radar I assume would have difficulty seeing anything below it with 1940s tech.
