This is almost certainly impossible.... but I'm going to say it anyway.

Instead of having the silly UAV in game atm, how about you deploy an AWACS E-3D or whatever, you dont actually need the plane there, we can just pretend.

Then (idea stolen from lock on) have a command where the AWACS gives you bearings to the nearest target.....

Thinking about it now, just realised that people don't show up on AWACS like planes do.....

meh. I lose

Yes you do....

Yep, you are undoubtedly right.

Hes an idea that i do... If there is a transport chopper in witch you can see out not as a pilot you look about for targets and spot them out for you team. i do that all the time. ^.^ it helps us win ^.^

E-3D AWACS, id love to see and maybe fly that but in PR its just way too large, besides dont think many know that "Bandit Bearing 036, Low" Means. Good Suggestion though.

Some kind of intercept radar would be very appropriate.
An UAV AWACs or a ground station radar that would give a 2K diameter radar bubble.
It will not shoot or give target hand offs just show the position and bearing of aircraft.

Incredibly important on team games. If you are a commander its insane how much better you can perform if you have a little recon. Also tankers will love you forever if you give them a few spots.

I say a flying drone launched by a "drone tech" kit (limited) and it can spot enemies through a zoomable camera. Also, you might be able to have a building that these techs could go into that would allow them to use bigger and better drones with a few LGMs on some maps (like Al Bashrah, have a UAV bldg.).

The Global Hawk would work for this kind of thing.

I say an air-based AWACs with a radar controller and pilot. Shows where aircraft are on the R/C's minimap and it's his job to tell freindly aircraft/AAA/SAMs where enemy aircraft are.

Remember there are only 32 players on each side.

And that's if it's a large server and actually full. A better player estimate would be 27 vs 27.
