I've noticed that most flights of aircraft on CAP and SEAD missions are not automatically climbing above 2000ft AGL even when the Mission Editor altitude sections suggests that they should. The only way to fix this is to click on the flights individually to then order them to climb.
PSA for save file; the issue affects both NATO and RF assets but only on certain missions.

Also if you select a unit and press F3 it will work

Thanks, I tried what you recommended and it works for player-controlled assets.
But AI controlled ones will still have the issue.

This is still a problem in 1258.1.

Yep, still happening on 1258.1 for me too.

Confirmed it still happens in 1258.1

but if you set group size at "1" , or launch the A/C individually, then the A/C will follow your Patrol mission altitude setting

Hi, is anyone still facing this issue in 1265.1? I am still encountering this problem for patrol missions.

It's still a problem in 1265.1. One workaround is to set the patrol mission settings to "Repeatable Loop," which seems to fix the issue, and importantly would also solve the issue for the AI too (though of course already existing scenarios will still have issues).

hi TempestII
thanks for highlighting this issue and thanks to everybody else for posting updates on that.
The issue is now fixed and will be in the next update release
