HELP! Uncle Mark's Tutorial No. 1

[EdmondDantes]

How do you win this? I've tried several times now. Even though I know what the enemy has and where he's coming from I still lose.

I try to use the helicopters to find the enemy SSN, but they get only a yellow contact and the torpedos they drop move around aimlessly.

I've been able to find the enemy surface group with the helos, but even when I order one of the helos to turn on surface search radar and set altitude to medium they don't get a hostile id until they're right on top of the enemy and they get shot down by SAMs.

And then when I try to fire Harpoons at the identified target the ships won't fire them.

I thought I understood how to make things work from the other tutorials. but this seemingly simple one is beyond frustrating.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

select enemy contact and hit "H" marking it manually as hostile, you'll then be able to attack it.
