USAF Mod - RQ4A Sensor Tweak

Description
"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles ..." -Sun Tzu

The USAF Mod's RQ-4A is truly a work of art, but as a member of the RPA community I noticed it was a bit... limited... in its sensor capabilties.

So, with the permission of the USAF Mod Team, I present the RQ-4A Sensor Tweak!

This mod is extremely small, as it only modifies the following:
  • (NEW) Adds the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) action from the USAF F-35A, allowing you to see a target from a top-down perspective
  • Increases the passive radar range to 32 km
  • Increase the active radar range from 4 km to 18 km (take that, AA!)
  • Adds an IR sensor effective out to 10 km
  • Adds a visual ID sensor effective out to 5 km
  • Modifies the sensor page range selections to 4 km, 8 km, 16 km, and 32 km!

It goes without saying this mod is dependent on the USAF Mod - Utilities mod to work, as this mod is only a configuration file replacement. Go support the USAF Mod team and their increible work on their Discord HERE[discord.gg]!

Aw, that's a shame. :(

@Cooked Auto I agree. I wish I could change it, but those problems are hard-coded into Arma's GUI and are beyond the scope of my abilities unfortunately.

The targeting boxes needs to be slightly more noticeable I feel, they have a tendency to get washed out in the FLIR and in regular view mode.
The friendly markers could be slightly bigger, they get lost in the visual clutter as well. Very nice feature though.

this is perfect. I really hope that this becomes official and they credit you

@Floofy Woofie I hadn't planned on expanding it beyond the RQ-4 since I don't really know any other UAVs as well as I do this one. Feel free to PM me if you got some cool ideas though!

I love this mod! Is there going to be a Reaper and other plane versions?
