dont want to detract from your very legitimate concern about AI aircraft behavior in general, but have you tried this below illustrated method for controlling/directing your friendly AI Section//Schwarm//Staffel.
the suggestion/method was provided by one of the desastersoft reps to Heinkill (at Simhq)
Quote:
You can Command your Section//Schwarm//Staffel to attack enemys, when you follow some rules:
There are five Commands in the Attack Screen. The fifth (Attack my Enemy or enemy of my view, if I translate correct) is mostly inactive, you see, because it is dark red. When this Option is in color like the other options, bright red, than you can use it and your squadron will attack. After Attack is done, you need to order your Squadron to go in very close Formation. This makes you able to order again an Attack at next time you meet enemies.
As I found out while testing, this reflects the human reactions of combat and command. Because: the enemy must be really visible for you and the squadron on a distance to be really identifyable.
