objects & units need to be revealed for a comprehensive situational awareness and a better sim.
When player is alone (not belonging to a group), it seems there is no reveal possibility when targeting an enemy. You can reveal all friendly or empty vehicle you want but enemy has to be killed for that!... or enemy must fires at you.
Add just a rookie in your group and enemies can be easily revealed!
Please change reveal logic (engine and "reveal" function for scripting).
open editor;
place a player and an enemy group (with no ammo for instance or allowdamage false for player);
place friendly/empty units apart;
Test the mission. When scrolling, you generally open weapon menu but also the reveal about kind of unit under the cursortarget.
It works for friendly & empty units, and doesn't seem to work for enemies. In fact, you obtain this information after a large amount of bullets in your direction or if you have a whatever unit in your group.
This impact also cursortarget and all scripts depending on it, as could be lineintersects conditions and so on.
