Are there range circles for weapon systems?

Apologies if I missed something simple but I’m wondering if there’s a selectable overlay for weapon system ranges. It would certainly be helpful with positioning vehicles, etc. Thanks in advance!

Shift + F ...click the keyboard icon top left to see a list of hotkeys, click the arrow on the hotkeys to go to the next hotkey page.

For helicopters only. Weapons can have multiple ammunition types so it would be quite messy.

Ah this explains why Shift F seems to do nothing - Only for helicopters does Shift F work. Good to know.

Concentric circles are the usual approach to this.

These are the allowed engagement ranges, set by the player/AI.
