I didn't know if the aircraft was targeting me or one of the AI wingmen. I also wasn't sure if it was close enough and had launched ET's or 60s or 73s. So just to be safe I pumped out some flares etc. in the hope that if those missiles were indeed coming at me maybe a flare would save my ass. I also, as you may have noticed really stayed low and tried to put a hill or mountain wall between me and those Mig-29A's.
Frankly, I was surprised that we all survived. In flying this variation and the others during testing, I've died more than I survived. Mission is very randomized. There are Igla teams placed around target as well but they are randomized to only show up under certain conditions etc. This particular flight they were not there...much to my delight. :smilewink:
