[Fail Safe #1] Maybe switch AI ROE from tight to FREE?

So, I have just completed the first mission.
The biggest problem for me was that the AI did not really fire back (bombed the crap out of the Soviet fleet without taking a single rocket or shot).
Checked the scenario editor and came to the conclusion that due to the limitation of cold war equipment, most of the contacts for the AI remain "yellow" for way too long, which prevents the Soviets from effectively engaging NATO assets.
I as the player on the other hand, can freely decide to target not positively IDd targets which is a massive advantage.
Dont know how the other missions are affected, but I would assume that this problem will plague the entirety of the campaign.
In modern titles, the above is not a problem as the minute you switch on your radar, the enemy will immediately ID you as hostile.
