a small requst for the wishlist

[Arad12]

to add option in the mission editor for a ai plane to be used as a aggressor role aircraft

[razo+r]

We already have that? There are dedicated agressor "countries" that you can select in the mission editor and then set it up like a CAP flight for example.

Or what exactly do you have in mind?

A ai plane that is on your same team and you can do with him a-a training

You can set ANY plane to red or blue.  So just pick the plane you want as aggressor and make it red (if you're blue).  Pretty much the same as you're asking for.  I could see an argument that you want to take off with it or something before you fight them, but while you're free to request it, I doubt you'll get much traction on getting it implemented.

There're plenty of Aggressors (or Red Flag, Constant Peg type) campaigns where it's done already with smart mission creation. You can use ROE, spawn/unspawn units, invulnerability to simulate non-live ammo training and so on...

I think what the OP is wanting is the ability to set an AI aircraft to 'kill you' and then reset in the same way real world aggressor pilots do. IE, they get into a firing position, and then over the radio go "You're dead", and then reset. In the same vein, they'll acknowledge you got into a kill position against them, go 'copy kill', and reset.

Basically a way to set up realistic aggressor behavior without having to dive deep into the scripting for it.

Yeah, just call Guns Guns Guns or Fox 2 when in firing position instead of live fire - this is not possible with AI currently.

It would be nice to have though, especially for training purposes. However, I'd argue that it's a fairly low priority situation. But would be a bad thing to have.
