Mission settings == EMCON Radar turned ON

F-35C which was not refueled, all correct, Radar ON

F-35B which was refueled by aircraft MQ-25A Stingray which was on route to mission "BIG CSG Tanker"
it switches to Radar OFF for some reason

EA-18G Growler on different mission BIG CSG EW after refueling successfully turn radar ON
(During refuels it disables radar, but keep Jammer ON)

I can't repro this in a scenario from scratch, the AC turnoff the radar when refueling and then go back to the CAP with radar ON and keep the Mission EMCON is still Radar Active

Can you try to repro this in a more isolated enviroment?

One aircraft from flight refueled and radar switched ON, second is never refueled and radar OFF
like it in state for waiting in que to refuel, when que is up, he follows leader instead of refueling

Here is another bug, for some reason radar state resets to disabled

If aircraft refueling capability is not enough(no tankers left), there is no error that aicraft cannot refueled,
it just turn off radar and continue doing mission
Maybe add error check or disable disabling radar while refueling? Offensive ECM still stays ON during refuel

"disable disabling radar while refueling"

This disabling radar during refueling was based on multiple requests from players that it was unrealistic for aircraft to refuel with radars active.
