Hello dev team,
please be so kind to have a look at attached scenario. One plane from SEAD Strike Mission just circles over the target area,
but does not attack or return to base.
thx a lot for the update btw, awesome as ever.

Hi Hamlet,
Gave the scen a go in the debugger. The aircraft has been tasked with destroying two SAM sites, but they are not radiating anymore and the Corsair has one Shrike ARM left. So it hangs in the target area, waiting for an opportunity to shoot.
It will return home if:
1) All targets are destroyed
2) It goes Bingo
3) Hits Winchester
I expanded the AI logics slightly, and now also added a condition for checking if Lead has left the target area. So it should work better in B794, and the wingman should re-join Lead when Lead reaches the Egress Attack waypoint.
Thanks!

Hi emsoy,
thanks, that explains the behavior.
Most often the SEAD strike is firing all Shrikes, so this does not happen regularly.
