Enemy aircraft attacking

[George Patton]

Question: But when enemy aircraft are attacking my ships, and are engaged by my CAP, why they are continuing flying directly to the target? No evading manouvres at all.

Hello,

Can you please post a save demonstrating this? Thanks!

Maybe their ROE was set to no evasive maneuvers.

This is why you see us consistently (to the point of being annoying, I know) ask for save files, because there are a gazillion factors affecting a given behavior or event and in order to effectively troubleshoot any issues we first have to replicate the context faithfully.

AI air ops are generally not sophisticated. Last night an enemy fighter went after my two Winchester-RTB fighters--I hit afterburner and led the enemy plane right into AAW range of my frigate. Splash. [:D]

Understood. Next time I'll save a video file. Anyway I was speaking about argentinian planes attacking UK TF in Malvinas 1982

It's happened in RL too [;)]. One of the common problems in many sims & wargames is that they assume a clockwork operating consistency by both humans & machinery that in RL ops just doesn't happen.

Well, for once, AI is pretty much a good reflection of reality, considering the original circumstances...

Right, but in CMANO, I get the impression that so long as the AI planes were on a CAP, I could lure them all--1 plane or 100 planes--right into surface SAMs. (I haven't run the test, but it would be easy enough to do)
