Yes this use to be the case in versions 1.2.16 and earlier so I always programmed the AI SEAD and AI STRIKE aircraft to do: SET IP Waypoint at max range to target for the SEAD weapon so they would fire at max range and not over fly the SAM. Reaction to Threat = PASSIVE DEFENCE (They will get the job done with all missiles away, but die quite quickly after that, was only way to get around the dump and run short coming) But since DCSW v1.5x and later there is a new option to stop these behaviours, it just has to be added to the missions flights. SET IP Waypoint at max range to target for the SEAD weapon so they would fire at max range and not over fly the SAM. Reaction to Threat = EVADE FIRE (Can now try to evade all incoming fire) Restrict Jettison=ON (They will get the job done with all missiles away, They will never dump their missiles even when engaged in a dogfight or trying to evade a locked on incoming missile. - DCS v1.5x compatibility settings I use now in all mission repairs. (SEAD) Flights - Reaction to Threat = Evade Fire, Restrict Jettison = ON (STRIKE) Flights - Reaction to Threat = Evade Fire, Restrict Jettison = ON (CAP) Flights - Reaction to Threat = Extreme Vertical Manueuvers, Restrict Jettison = OFF (Can't dump Fuel tanks otherwise) (CAS) Flights - Reaction to Threat = Evade Fire, Restrict Jettison = ON 3 Asus p877v-pro, Intel I7 3770k 4.2ghz, 32gb Ripjaw X ram, Nvidia RTX-2070 Super, Samsung 32" TV, Saitek x52 pro Joystick and Combat rudder pedals, TrackIR 5, Win8.1 x64 with SSD and SSHD protected by (Avast AV).

Haukka81 Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 I hope that there is someday way to set this default : Restrict Jettison=ON Makes mission making lees pain. AI is too stupid to know when to throw weapons away :D Oculus CV1, Odyssey, Pimax 5k+ (i5 8400, 24gb ddr4 3000mhz, 1080Ti OC ) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Spades_Neil Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 I was about to ask this, because dumping missiles is really stupid as SEAD. Thanks!
