UAV

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle provides a relatively stealthy platform to observe

and target the enemy.

In the observer position F8, the

UAV is displayed.

Pressing N provides a magnified

view.

F7 switches to the “Commander’s

Position” view of the platform (TI is
the default setting):

But “normal” is accessed by Num

+.
Pressing N provides a gradual
zoom (multiple levels available).

Pressing CTRL “locks” you onto

that location / target and the UAV’s
sight will attempt to remain
focused there (subject to the route
you give it):

Pressing CTRL also lases the item

in the cross hairs and provides all
the same targeting information as
the FO sight.

NOTE: You can also call in

Offensive Support (if allocated)
from the UAV.

The same information is available

through the thermal view as well,
which can be toggled by Num +.

Note: the UAV is “flown” by using the “W”, “A”, “D”, “S” and “X” (forward, left,
right, stop and back[UAVs don’t reverse so well]) keys when in the 3D world. The
“Q” and “Z” keys increase and decrease altitude. You “click and drag” with the
mouse / use the joystick to aim and lase the target in the F7 view. (rev. 2.640).
