Lately played some older early war missions.

There is no clear procedure for the SPB.
The I-16 must not have further waypoints then the one after the disengagement waypoint. If you want them to fly home after their mission, the stay fixed to the TBM, even if it is shot down.

Even the disengagement has no clear rules.
Sometimes they dont disengage, whatever you do with the missionbuilder. Sometimes they do, even if you follow the same mission building procedures.

They should automatically disengage when the TBM is attacked.

Oh yes, and even the rookie I-16 has godlike deflection shooting skills.
If you've got one on your back, you should have had a good ammount of energy advantage or you are dead within some seconds. You can only sacrifie your wingman and run.
They turn on a penny, they accelerate like hell, climb like there is no tomorrow and shoot rather accurately. They usually kill you when you try to outrun or outclimb them at ranges of around 700m, Ace AI does that at 1K with one short burst.

Or is it real that you have a 15:1 disadvantage in a E4 against them.
