Sorry to be redundant!

Your testing means that the original poster just wasn't getting close enough. So, no bug in the game.

Looks like Mr. Gumby should try flying with icons on for a while until he gets a sense of what a JS-1 looks like at 500 m or less. Since it's a bigger tank than many in the game, he might have been underestimating his range.
