The Mobile Missile Warning Truck is a defensive unit meant to work in conjunction with air defenses to protect them or other valuable assets from incoming missiles or bombs.

The GMWS is identifiable on the radar warning receiver as MW.

Functionality

Team B Mobile Missile Warning Truck as options as shown in editor.

The unit has 5 special options in the mission editor.

  • Radars To Command
  • Decoys
  • Units To Defend
  • Missile Defenses
  • Jammers

Radars To Command

This option controls which radars the truck will command. For example: When the truck detects an Anti-Radiation Missile it will tell the radars selected here to disable their radar so the chance of the missile missing is increased. In the shown example, the missile warning truck will command the first 2 SAM Fire Control Radars, but will not intervene with the rest of the radars.

Decoys

This option goes hand in hand with the Decoy Radar Transmitter. If we go back to the example of the SAM-system getting attacked with Anti-Radiation Missiles, the missile warning truck will tell the Decoys to turn on their own radar and mimic the radar signature of the radar which was shot at. This is done in an attempt to throw off the missile. Will only enable when the munitions are targeting any of the units selected as Radars To Command, Decoys, Missile Defenses, Jammers or Units to Defend.

Units To Defend

Here you can select any ground based units which you want your MW truck to also defend.

Missile Defenses

Here you can select IRMD Launchers which will intercept munitions fired at the SAM network. For example, when the missile warning truck detects an Anti-Radiation Missile, it will tell all the linked IRMD's to launch missiles to intercept and hopefully take down the incoming ARM. Will only engage munitions which are targeting any of the units selected as Radars To Command, Decoys, Missile Defences, Jammers or Units to Defend.

Jammers

Here is where you add GECM Trucks. The added trucks will Low-Band jam incoming GPS Munitions so they miss their target. Will only jam munitions which are targeting any of the units selected as Radars To Command, Decoys, Missile Defences, Jammers or Units to Defend.
