Ive had LOMAC for a little over a year now I think, and ive been playing it for about 2 months because initially my graphics card wasnt good enough to run it! Grin Lately ive been playing it more, and ive seen this beautiful shots on the net of Air to Air refuelling in Lock on.

In which mission/campaign can you do Air to air refuelling? Im on the fourth part of the SU-27 campaign but in every part if I "ask AWACS My Tanker" they reply that there is no tanker available.

Im really deperate to try air to air refuelling in LOMAC, as the air to air refuelling in flight simulator 2004 is pretty unrealistic...  Wink

While I don't have Lock On, I do know the Su-27 can't refuel mid-flight.
Try doing it in a Su-33, F-15, or the A-10.

Yeah, use the Su-33 for your first time, but the easiest way to practice is to make a mission with a tanker flying at a constant speed then put your fighter a couple of miles behind the tanker then start the mission and practice all you want (make your fuel around 50% so you can actually refuel, and enough so you don't drop out of the sky if you miss the hook-up the first time).

Good Luck! Smiley Wink

If you want to try really challenging air to air refuelling get Lock On 1.1.  The computer no longer takes over after you hit the probe.  A Lot of Fun!!!
