"Standard infantry soldier equipped with an assault rifle."

― Mission Editor Description

Infantry soldiers are the most basic unit in VTOL VR, available for both the allied and enemy faction.

They will engage targets with their assault rifles. Their assault rifles largely pale in comparison to weapons such as the Z20x2 Anti-Air Artillery turrets, but still have the potential to deal a fair amount of damage to passing low-flying aircraft, especially if multiple infantrymen are in a tight formation.

They will engage any enemy units up to ~0.5km (0.2nm).

Troop Transport

Infantry units can be picked up and transported by either a player or AI controlled AV-42C or APCs and IFVs.

Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC)

A JTAC set up with a laser designator.

Any Infantry unit is capable of being set as a JTAC by running one of four actions in the mission editor. These are as follows:

• JTAC Lase Position
  • Will designate a specific position set with the editor cursor.
• JTAC Lase Waypoint
  • Will lase a specific waypoint.
• JTAC Lase Unit
  • Will lase a specific unit.
• JTAC Lase Units
  • Will lase any available unit in a list. If the current marked one is destroyed, it will move to the next target.

These settings allow an Infantry unit to lase a specific target for identification or weapon guidance. These markers can also use a specific laser code from 0001 to 9999. Optionally, an IR laser can also be activated to be viewable from a pilots NVGs.

JTACs have a maximum lasing range of 20 km.

A JTAC can also be commanded to stop lasing by running the following action:

• Stop JTAC Laser
