So after the very first mission half your squadron is missing! I find this happens on nearly every campaign during the first 2 or 3 missions, you lose half your squad due to the AI automatically turn fighting with any plane it sees.
I know its hardly a new subject but I think with better AI the whole sim experience would be muuuch better. I know rowans BOB had very good AI and I remember that being much more fun in a dogfight.

This has always been one of the things that moves me away from running stock. I do a lot offline.. and I know the subject of mods is taboo here.. but the AI has been one of the biggest holes in the stock sim since it's inception.. it is good at times... but moree often than not I find my wingman flying wing to the guy shooting me down.. or warning me as I go spiraling off into the dirt with one wing. The AI mod helps.. but I sioncerely hope that an official fix can come from 1C.
