So after by the book mission editing to get the AI attack a ground target with JDAMS I give the order once we get close "Engage Mission and Rejoin" via the correct coms menu, AI acknowledge.. but does nothing. They fly slow and straight, does not engage, does not evade enemy fire or incoming sams and just gets shot down. 

Reflown the mission many times and the AI is just passive. What is wrong?
If I say engange air defences, they acknowledge but just gets shot down, no harms fired.

If I say engage "mission and rejoin" they fly slow and straight and get shot down, not even trying to engage mission ground targets.

I have a track if that's useful but I've seen this behavior from the AI so many times.

I just want the ai behavior to be automatic. Us mission designers shouldn't have to tell the ai what to do. If given an order the should act confidently and correctly, adjusting their action based on external factors. Sorry for sounding grumpy 😔

 

I'll reply later with the track!

Weird because I just set up a mission and my wingmen are successfully engaging SA-11 and SA-6 with the order ''engage air-defences''.

Are you sure you do not have a ROE option set somewhere along the line that is messing up their behaviour ?

Simba, yes is have it all defined in the mission editor as it should. No ROE limitations. I've been doing missions for many years but this time it just fails. I even have problems with a trivial thing such as bomb in zone triggering.. Can't understand what's wrong. Seems like the last patch made my ME no longer work.

Tried again on my own mission and everything looks fine.

My wingmen engage an SA-11, SA-6 and OSA-8 on Kuweires.

There is one problem though.

Once they shacked the SD radar of the SA-11, they have troubles to engage the launchers.

If they are too far and the SA-11 doesn't paint us, they refuse to engage (I believe because they do not see it on RWR)

So I get them closer, they get locked, they accept the order to engage so they turn around, get some distance to fire the HARM ... so the SA-11 lose the lock and my wingmen just rejoin.

You have to get them in the SA-11 range and give them the order, but your timing have to be right.

Note that my mission is at night, but everyone has the FLIR and the HTS.

I expect this situation to be a little simpler soon when we'll be able to share SPI as Wags said a couple of days ago.
