It's in now! If you go to the box or arsenal, grab one of the unsung radios for the radio slot and then use the scroll wheel, the same old UI will pop up and allow you to not only select some type of support but will play music and or radio chatter locally from your player.

Beautiful! That was one of my favorite features. I'll give it a go soon, many thanks.

does it work for fire support though? i picked one of the radios up and tried to cycle through the channels. one channel played music (which is an awesome addition, especially since nearby players can hear it too) which i think was labelled "support", another channel was for calling transport and a third one for fire missions/air strikes. when i tried hitting the "call" button on the radio handset while switched to the transport or fire mission/air strike setting nothing would happen. is there something special i have to do?

@we tortured some folks - Sorry for the long awaited response! No, but you have to have it initialised in your radio slot first whenever you put it in your inventory. If that's done then it should all work fine and when you click the handset to call what you have selected, it works off the BI system so unless there's some SP issues and you are running SP, then it should be working fine.

When ever I call in a Support Chopper for a gun run, they dont shoot, I'll call a Cobra and it just flies over. why does it not fire?

Bump because same

Sorry for the long awaited response as I never got the bump notification. It's a known issue and right now we've had higher priorities to look into so specifically hasn't been addressed yet. Apologies but I also hope that these airstrikes will become reliable in future as SP play will be significantly increased in excitement not requiring anyone to fly in a mission to help you out.

I hope you bring back the old UI from arma 2 for radio support so you can ask for napalm strikes by setting up a grid or smoke, also the helicopter request with the options of hold waiting for smoke it was an awesome feature from arma 2 unsung, hope we see it again soon.
