I had the exact same thing happen to me, flying with 8 sabres yoyo-ing all around me until one smashed directly into me as well.

This seems to mostly affect jets. I ran several different planes with all the same parameters and

the warbirds performed much better. I tried to make the video as short as possible and got it down to 5:51.

I have also attached all of the tracks from which I made the video. They are about 5-6 mins. each.

Here is the other track with the F-18's hopping up and down.

They start hopping as soon as I take off from Sharjah, approx 20 minutes in.

Here is another good one. Notice again, they start going crazy as soon as I lower my gear.

From the changelog, 2.7.8.16140 18/11/2021

"Fighter AI. Adjusted the formation mechanism to prevent fighters from making large and abrupt maneuvers when reforming."  

Sorry to keep bugging you about this, but it's not fixed yet.

A brief word: 

they will stay in formation all the way to the battle, separate to attack targets

and then reform, stay in formation all the way back, and only go crazy when on landing approach.

In this and the other tracks that I sent, they start to fall apart after the break turn.

Thanks for your patience.  Ray

the landing in formation behaviour is broken for AI. sometimes they jump up and down, sometimes they fly underground, sometimes they do this:

 

you have to give them command to RTB and then you land individually. this is a functional workaround for now.

HaHa...good one. I'm not trying to land "in formation," I'm simply trying to land after a mission.

I will try the RTB command, but I think I have already.

[dorianR666]

apparently they can even land backwards.

[Flappie]

I'm checking your tracks, hoping they will show the bug.

LOL nice caucuses-drifting!

Reported.

If one of you manage to get a short track (~less than 10 min) showing an AI landing backwards, please attach it in this thread.

Thanks @Flappie

It's better than it was, but now they go crazy on the radio.

Watch track 'til the end.
