How to Align Radar Towers in Helldivers 2

By
Shane Williams

You’ll come across a variety of sub-objectives while working your way through the main missions, such as clearing outposts, realigning radar towers and more. We recommend that you go out of your way to complete these, as it’ll increase the amount of EXP and Credits you’ll obtain at the end of the mission. On this page, we’ll guide you through the necessary steps to realigning the radar towers!

The Radar Tower will need to face the direction shown on the image.

Realigning Radar Towers in Helldivers 2

You’ll occasionally come across a radar tower as one of the optional sub-objectives while exploring the various worlds in Helldivers 2, and it’ll require you to realign the satellite dish in order to get them back online. However, it isn’t immediately obvious how to do it, so you’ll want to begin by clearing out all of the enemies, then you’ll want to interact with the terminal to bring up an image which indicates what position the tower needs to be facing. You’ll now want to interact with the tower and rotate it until it’s between the two lines shown on the image, which means you’ll need to keep going back and forth between the tower and the terminal in order to position it correctly.

Unfortunately, this can be a long process if you’re playing solo, but if you’re playing with friends then you can have them stay by the terminal and tell you when to stop in order to save time. Once you’ve successfully got the radar tower back online, you’ll want to open up your mini-map to find small diamond icons scattered all over. These will indicate areas that contain useful items that you can collect, such as Super Credits and Money, which you can use to purchase better Stratagems.
