The US aircraft's radar does not mark targets or give them names


Top US aircraft do not mark targets and do not give them names, like for example on Soviet or European aircraft. Is this a bug or did they forget to add such a function for other aircraft?

This is called NCTR, if a vehicle doesn’t have it yet to have sources that indicate it did, please feel free to bug report it. This is not something all radars have, and you have to prove this specific system had it IRL.

NCTR doesn’t work on tws mode


Actually no.

it does for certain radars

I don’t understand. Why do some nations have this function, while others completely lack it?

Because it’s a feature only specific radars had, Gaijin has only given it to the radars that had NCTR in real life.

every top tier US plane except F-14 has NCTR irl

Yeah, so?

you said yourself, they should have type based NCTR. maybe not super specific with the variant but the general type should be identified

Literally when did I say this…? xD

individual specifications of the radar, newer/more advanced radar receive the feature on TWS

An interesting thing to note for everyone here :)

not in tws though
pretty sure the f18a also works like that

What does this mean? Other nations may get NCTR?

It just means that all (valid) reports for all the jets missing the function that they had IRL has been forwarded to devs. Then it’s up to the devs if/when they want to implement it to those aircraft.

They have NCTR irl, going off what you said this means they should have NCTR in-game

Because it was reported

In case of aircraft that SHOULD have NTCR then feel free to bug report it.
Be careful that some simply do not have this function.
