How do I use my firestorm?
I just built a firestorm but it didn't show in any of my hangers. I then freed up a place in every hanger but it's still not showing. How do I get it in one of my hangers?

Are you sure it's finished building? They take a couple weeks to complete after you order them.

It should appear on your primary continent hangar (they take some time to actually get bult). It should appear something like firestorm building). From there you can move them to whatever continent you want them to be

It finished building, I got the video clip of it and my engineer told me. Plus I see it under build vehicles; Firestorm: 1. It's not in any of my hangers though. I have a free space in each and I've triple checked but it's just Ravens under every slot with a free slot in each base.

I see it 'building' in one of my hangers but it disappeared once it was built. So, have I lost it to some sort of bug?

You constructed a firestorm aircraft. Its call sign is Demon. So in your hanger you can click on the Demon, click loadout and you will see that it looks differently. At least thats what it was called in my game.

Yeah it catches a few people out. Even thought its called a Firestorm it's actual call sign in the hangar will be Demon

This is weird then. There's only Ravens in my hanger. I'm 100% certain. I have a firestorm built, I'm 100% certain on that too.

Do I order it like a interceptor?

I think maybe it's bugged out cause my hanger was full. Seems strange.

Ok. I figured it out. For some reason, it's listed as a Raven but I noticed the symbol to the left of the name was different so I clicked it and it's actually my Firestorm aka Demon.

Thanks for the help everyone.

It also has 6 kills without ever flying! Nice.

are you playing long war?

your best pilot is moved to the firestorm when it crafts, transferring its kills.
BruceFlea Sep 23, 2015 @ 5:51pm 
So that's why. Yeah. Long war.

rename your birds.

Really would have helped had you mentioned it was LW to start :) Pays to put it in the title in future.

If you use long war, the firestorm once completed (it takes time) will still show up as RAVEN-#. But if you are paying attention, you will see it is classified differently out to the side.

Does it show up as a Firestorm in base game?
