We were playing FIN-RUS assault (RUS assaulting) 5/2010 with slightly modified Finnish OOB from Zipuli. IIRC the units in question are not modified in any way. I think I have the saved game, just prior to the strike still here.

The gun was Finnish 35mm Itk 88 with radar (Fire control 110) which was loaded in to the truck just prior to the air strike.

The fighter was Su-34 armed with Kh-31 ARMs. SEAD strike if I understand the concepts properly.

My opponent wrote the following:

The year is 2010, countries are Finland and Russia.
The airstrike in question was a SEAD strike, made with Russian SU-34.
I think it tries to launch an ARM, but can't be totally sure since it's hard
to get full info on what happened purely by replay.

In any case, this has happened twice, both times I've had some of my airplanes
waiting for a drop. This last time I only got two, none of which have any cargo,
last time I had my whole fully (bin) laden air armada waiting for green light.

The SEAD plane tries to target a radar (as far as I can tell by looking at the
replay), the missile goes to -1,-1 and explodes there killing almost everything.
Even the unit list shows that everyone that's been loaded to any kind of vehicle
is destroyed. I checked a couple of BMP's and a chopper, but they had their cargo
intact (perhaps because each had only one squad aboard), and my hovercrafts also looked
like fully lade so I figured it was only a nasty little bug that didn't actually do
anything but scare us, but then came the airdrop. Or more accurately didn't since every
single plane was totally empty. Then Dmnt informed me that when he tried to unload
his troops they took instant casualties, and we decided to pull the plug on this one
and start a new one.

And the second time this happened was pretty much similar.
Plane (Su-34 or Su-30) tries to fire an ARM (I think), which goes to -1,-1, but now when I checked my vehicles
I noticed that all had lost most if not all of their infantry passengers.
Or at least the passenger count had dropped drastically.

My guess would be that this has something to do with locking on to a radar but not finding
any suitable target

You'll be getting a save file to work on after we finish this.
