Change the behavior of helicopter when has "CAS" task and "Ground Escort" action to use its flares as it does for "Escort" task

I was making a mission where AI helicopters escorting ground units are attacked by Fox 2 missiles.

The problem that is as soon as I add action "Ground Escort" to AI helicopter, it completely stops using flares.

When task is removed, it uses it.

Problematic configuration looks the following way (no-flares-completely-clean-saved-games.trk😞

When I opened a ticket for this issue I received the following response:

the "Ground Escort" action does not involve the use of flares, since the main task for a helicopter is to protect ground troops, not a helicopter.

It is also inconsistent with an "Escort" task behavior:

In this case helicopter uses flares (escort-task-ground-units-flares-are-used.trk), but flying pattern is really weird (escort-task-ground-units.trk).

I was advised by support team to open a topic here to bring more attention to this, and this is the reason that post it here.
