When you "fire" this thing, ammo will spawn above your head then flying toward where you aiming .(aiming point will skip through buildings and trees).

This mod work with all vehicle which have laserdesignator too,and your drones.


Magazines been automatically added to UAV happens on you connect to it ,if want refresh its magazines, disconnect and connect again.

For saving your mouse scroll wheel, you can choose not to add certain types of ammo when you click "Add Fire Support" in the CBA settings.Default add all of them.




About CAS , A-164 and AH-99 strike direction dependon your character facing, postion is camera aiming point,if you using vehicle or drone then you can separate camera aiming and character facing .this make can choose CAS direction.(or just press alt) after summon CAS AH-99, you can use UAV termianl remote it.(its true)
Prairie Fire enemy scanning area is your aiming point with 400m radius.(you can just aim your feet ,unless enemy really close.)
About CAS UH-80 support.I dont want force replace your UH-80 with a UAV version,if you dont upgrade it ,it spawn a vanilla UH-80 with minigun loiter at your aiming point,then force connected you to gunner with code.If you upgrade it to UH-80 KingCrab (Stub Wings) ,thats 2 minigun + 4 hardpoint UAV and will replace your UH-80 (Stub Wings),equipped M61 Vulcan from F/A 181 + GAU-8 Avenger from A-164 you can remote it with UAV terminal and burst bullets rain and missiles to enemies.
About AAV supprot ,or called "800Rnd_82mm_Airborne_1" or "Steel Pegasus" . Full name is Airborne Assault Vehicle , If you click off "Airborne default APC" on CBA , then you can choose a vehicle to airborne (vehicle from any mod or cDLC you have) . After Parachute open ,you are able to remote commander of this vehicle ,also able to summon your Assault Squad .
About MQ-4A Recon support ,it scan your aiming point with 800m radius,mark every enemy on map.And running scan every 5sec total 12rounds,after 60sec all marks and MQ-4A get delete.
About Cruise Missile support,cruise missile won’t strike the enemy on its self — you’ll be the one controlling it! Yes, you can press the Shift key to accelerate. If aiming gets tricky when the cruise missile hits Mach 2, press the X key to slow it down for better control. The missile deals the same damage as the original version, but if you fly faster, you'll cause extra 'Physical Damage' due to collision impact.If you press button release control,cruise missile will airburst immediately at its current location.
About VC-130U Spooky support ,its a UAV you can connect it.When spawn "this thing" it counterclockwise loiter with your aiming point keep 1350m distance and 1250m height.Equipped 40mm Cannon + 25mm gatling + MissileLauncher .LTM-114 missile when fire it follow your cursor ,can lock target before launch as well.Their weapon damage are close to COD AC130.And just like COD when you controlling AC130 it show all target on your screen !




Note: CAS "Prairie Fire" used mixed music "Time to Leave" from S.O.G. Prairie Fire DLC;Calling Gunship support(VC-130U Spooky support ) and its weapon firing sounds ,from COD19, also with COD hit sounds and hit marker.

If you get stuck on UAV disconnect , there is a "Debug button" on CBA setting ,press it to force disconnect.

Forget bring your laserdesignator ? just hit H key 10 times in 2sec or CBA hetkey,it also add UavTerminal and all those mags.CAS "Prairie Fire" ,each missile and rocket are precision strike to every enemy coordinates ,wont aim allies or civs.But if over lag like only 10fps may cus ballistic calculation error,then make sure you are not standing in the direction of the jet' approach or departure.If your MQ-4A dead when scanning ,some "satellite" will take over its job keep scanning.There is "Tactical VC-130U backpack" you can directly spawn it without time limte.Seach "cruise" in 3den you will see, why you can control a cruise missile.

"failed to add" is the hotkey to add mags ,happens when you already have laserdesignator. Remove mags is another one.
it doesnt work it doesnt remove it it just says failed to add

Sure, that’s the CBA hotkey,not mouse action.
i dont see it
EvilBatW  [author] 26 Sep @ 7:02am 
Added new CBA hotkey remove them.
we need an option to remove them and add them
EvilBatW  [author] 29 Aug @ 7:04pm 
Thats not a CBA setting , it need to change whole V-44 config file and cannot switch at will . So i wasnt change AC-130 magazines size to like 5 rounds .
can you add cup vehicles and usaf ac130 also instead of 1 shell it land 10 or 5 and it has cooldown can be set in cba settings

Previously, the shell was fixed to start from the 900 m position, but now its been changed to a CBA adjustable setting, with an extra option to set how far back it starts from.
