Colebrook Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I have seen this several times, AI killing friendly tanks in the same platoon when shooting enemy at close range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted March 22, 2020 Members Share Posted March 22, 2020 It happens (only) if the friendly unit is driving into another's line of fire. They probably shouldn't do this in the first place, but it falls more into the category of "accidents because of reckless driving and bad coordination" than premediated blue on blue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Or maybe just categorised as "sh*t happens". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Volcano Posted March 24, 2020 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2020 Right, the AI checks the GPS for LOS, but not the gun's actual LOS. This is realistic, and is a real world problem when the gun sight is higher than the gun and doesn't share the same line of sight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Happened to me IRL during trials in Qatar, 1999. I was the far right tank and several targets were on my 1h. The platoon sergent on my left engaged those target and after he fired a round the gunner saw me entering his los... Luckily he was firing HEAT, and the round passed over my tank.

Well, we had tanks shooting coax at each other by mistake during a range,,, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
