So, ive been testing the F-117 in test flights and custom battles, and found out the F-117 is missing something.
Whenever i try to (camera) lock targets with the built in pod, i can’t lock a target, it indicates that its possible, but when i lock i get a still ‘jdam’ lock, instead of a lock that tracks an enemy vehicle. I think that its a missing feature, since the pod suggests the lock (the 4 lines get more spread out when looking at a target).
Can anyone tell me if its actually missing it, or if its supposed to be.
Thanks in advance -Enigma
IIRC the 117 never had tracking lock. Hence their use against static targets (hangars, bridges, etc). They werent meant to target moving vehicles unless it was some later upgrade

Thanks for the quick reaction!
Looks like that will be manual then!
Information about the IRADS on the F-117 is hard to come by, but it’s for sure it DID have a target tracking function. It’s mentioned in the flight manual on several occasions. I can’t use it for bug reporting of course, as it’s export restricted, even if it’s unclassified. Not going to find any other sources likely either, so just hope Gaijin fixes it on their own, if they don’t then tough luck.
