How it works:

F10 layout: Personal / CSAR / CTLD / Salvage / Interrogation / Factory Menu.

The Rescue Duty toggle is in the Personal Menu. Most active rescue and salvage actions require Rescue Duty ON.

CSAR Menu


  • List Active Pickups
  • Show Pickups on Map
  • Pick up nearby rescue
  • Check Onboard
  • Offload Pickups
  • Request Signal Flare
  • Request Smoke

CSAR / SAR flow


1. Turn ON Rescue Duty (Personal Menu -> Toggle Rescue Duty).
2. Show Pickups on Map or List Active Pickups to find rescue markers.
3. Request Signal Flare / Request Smoke to localize a friendly survivor when needed.
4. Land near the survivor and use Pick up nearby rescue.
5. To move survivors toward a safer pickup, place a map mark with text: CSAR exfil. Nearby rescue locations move toward the mark.
6. Land near a friendly airbase and Offload Pickups.

Salvage Menu


  • Pick up nearby (250 kg)
  • Pick up nearby (500 kg)
  • Pick up nearby (1000 kg)
  • Pick up nearby (All remaining)
  • Drop off
  • Emergency Jett!
  • List salvage jobs map wide
  • Show Salvage on Map

Salvage flow


1. Show Salvage on Map (markers are separate from CSAR markers).
2. Salvage pickup requires a helicopter, Rescue Duty ON, and landing near the wreck.
3. Choose pickup amount: 250 kg / 500 kg / 1000 kg / All remaining.
4. Drop off to unload. Factory drop-offs and airbase drop-offs both pay but use different payout multipliers.
5. Coalition salvage credit feeds the salvage pot, which funds Factory production.
6. Emergency Jett! discards all onboard rescue/salvage payload.
7. Landing near a valid airbase or factory can auto-trigger offload after a short delay where enabled.

Interrogation Menu


  • Request status
  • Request collected info
  • Initiate 'mind games'
  • Initiate 'chat with knuckles'
  • Initiate 'hydro-persuation'
  • Initiate 'oil planking'

Interrogation actions operate on captured RED pilots. They are fed by successful recovery and offload outcomes.
