Logistics in GAW

Overview

Logistics in GAW refers to the use of helicopters (specifically the Mi-8 and UH-1H or the AI in the F10 menu) to deploy troops and vehicles to the front lines. This is crucial in the ground battle, as it's the only way that blue forces can get deployed to the field. For extra information about CTLD check out the Github page

AI Logistics

The F10 radio menu has the option to send security forces to Points of interest around the map (FARPs and Airbases right now). Either a C130 or Blackhawk helicopter will be dispatched to the targeted location and a timer will begin before Security Forces can be deployed again (at time of writing this is 10 minutes). When the forces land, a small blue force will be deployed at their touch down point.

Player Logistics

Backed by CTLD, the main way to deploy blue forces (and the only way to deploy air defenses) is by Blue players flying CTLD crates and troops to the deployment zones.

Spawning into a slot

Almost all (pending bugs) Mi-8 and UH-1H helicopters will be enabled with CTLD, and can access the menu via F10 radio menu.

Pickups

Troops

Troop pickups are enabled in logistics zones around the FARPs. Green smoke is deployed in those zones for recognition. Simply land nearby that smoke, and you can use the F10 radio menu to request troops. F10 -> CTLD -> Troop Transport -> Load ...

The selected troop type will be loaded into your transport.

Vehicles

Vehicles are transported by using crates in CTLD. The vehicles pickup is generally near the smoke, but instead of being provided by the troop zone (the smoke) it's provided by a nearby HEMTT.
