Bogeys and Bandits

by Recluse

 

Bogey is the correct designation for an ambiguous contact. Don't know if you are using the term or that is the call in the SIM.

If I remember correctly, the spoken DECLARATIONS of 'Bandits' in the sim is "HOSTILE", but I don't recall what happens if I ever asked for a Declaration on a NEUTRAL..so if you are getting a 'BOGEY' declaration, it means just that...the AWACS is tracking an aircraft, which does not squawk IFF, but they cannot otherwise determine if it is friendly or hostile (how they really do this is a good trick, of course....)

BOGEY: UNKNOWN
BANDIT: Confirmed HOSTILE
FRIENDLY: DUH
