Communications Equipment Bug

The location for each of the Communications Equipment change with each map and there might be instances where the equipment will be invisible.

To work around this, have your Helo team ping its location and shoot at that location. This should allow you to destroy the communications equipment and pick up the Armored Hard Drive.

As Helo Team
