Presenting my new Command and Control Mod!
This mod will add new objects to your game to simulate various ground and air control and warning systems, like GCI, FACs, airborne radar operators, ground spotters, etc.
For example, the Ground Control Intercept Radar will provide the bearing, range, altitude, and heading of enemy aircraft within 100km, while the FAC will provide the direction and distance of enemy ground units.
Please See the Readme for Install Instructions and Details. This mod should work in 4.10 as well.

v 1.11
- Added artillery spotting objects (ground + naval).
- Airborne Radars will now report only the closest contact, to aid interceptions in bomber streams.
- Reduced range of SPR objects at night.
- FAC's will now mark targets with white smoke.
v 1.10
- Revamped RCGCI object. It is now simpler to use and based on skill levels rather than plane types. Mainforce raids will only be confirmed once they drop their bombs. It now has a range limit.
- All airborne radars will now report in km or miles, then feet or meters once the range drops below 1km / 1mi.
- Added NAV object which will report player's position as a grid square, with a small possibility for error.
- Added OBOE blind bombing aid, with iconic navigation system, ETA, and continuously computed bombing point. Can stand in for SHORAN, Knickebein, etc.
- RESCAP and SAR objects will now pop smoke or flares when rescue aircraft comes near.
- Added a generic German Tail Warning Radar object. Removed automatic tail warning from FuG-218.
- Added support for H19D and Bell-47 helicopters to the RESCAP object.
- Made readme into a .pdf
v 1.09
- Replaced ASV object with five new Surface Search radars with historical scan cones and ranges.
- Modified GNR objects with reduced range and chance to miss enemy a/c at night.
- Added Radio Operator object by Sputnikshock
- Added "Running Commentary" (Zahme Sau) GCI.
- FAC will now self-mark when the player comes within range, with smoke during the day and a ground flare at night.
- GCI will now guide the player to the nearest enemy target, rather than random enemies.
- GCI will now provide heading information, rather than speed.
- Added Flensburg homing device.
- Added Monica tail-warning radar.
- Added tail-warning radar to the FuG-218 radar set.
- Reformatted readme and put it in a .rtf file for increased readability.
v 1.08
- Modified GNR and SPR objects. They will not call out sightings when you are flying alone in a single-seat aircraft.
- Fixed syntax problem in German radar messages.
- Made DZ object into a "column" that will erase units within a 1km radius, regardless of altitude.
- Increased Naxos and Serrate update period to 15 seconds.
v 1.07
- Added 8 new airborne radars with historical ranges and scan cones.
- Airborne radars now search in a true "cone", with limited azimuth and elevation.
- Airborne radars will no longer report speed of enemy aircraft, just bearing and range.
- Added Naxos and Serrate objects with historical ranges and detection parameters.
- Added SAR (sea rescue) object.
- Added DZ (dead zone) object.
- The Corkscrew object now provides a % chance that bombers will evade to make them less predictable.
- The SPR object's ground object detection radius is now a function of altitude (range = 2x altitude) out to a maximum range of 6000m.
v 1.06
- Corrected a classfile error that was causing problems with 4.10 installs
- Added the RESCAP ground object.
v 1.05
- Added Window ground object.
- Added Corkscrew ground object.
- GCI now comes in two flavors, metric and imperial.
- GCI now has a minimum effective height of 150m.
v 1.04

- Increased SPR range to 3000m and 2000m alt.
- Spotters will now call out ships.
- Increased FuG range to 9000m with a 120 degree sweep.
- Added ASV radar with 120 degree sweep and 30km range.
- Removed the ".0" from all bearing and range reports.
v 1.03
- Added new Gunner object to call out enemy fighters near the player.
- Added new Spotter object to call out enemy ground units near the player.
v 1.02
- Added new Coastwatcher objects that will report on enemy ships within 15km.
- Increased Observer radius to 15km.
- Added prototype 'FuG' airborne radar operator object.
v 1.01
- Fixed crash bug caused by infantry classes. FAC will now call out infantry as 'armor'. Will try to fix in future updates.
- Moved text message to the left to better fit on non-widescreen monitors.
