I clicked the red buttons of AC3, V-MD, D-MD, CZU VKL, etc., but I can't track another target. Can't move the speed gate or change radar bearing.
I even switched to the KI-2202V panel ('W') and started to move the switches from GOTOV and POLN to VYKL, to no avail.
The radar was still working.
Pressing the red buttons - no effect (except for the second from the left, of course).

Well, maybe I'm doing something wrong. So:
- is it possible to shoot down any other plane in this scenario?
- is it possible to switch to another target and track it with the use of IADS?

No more questions so far smile


It is not really discussed in the documentation, so...
... the third program of the Plamja-KV (Manual page 17 point 3) is the

Target tracking
In this mode, the Plamja-KV is continuously calculating the target's predicted path, and figuring the firing solution based on this information.

If the target is lost, or the target tracking is discontinued, the Plamja goes into the tracking of the predicted path.
This mode is indicated by the Prolong lamp.
Manual Page 30 point 6.

Just press the red button below, to discontinue the running of No3 program.
