I suck at managing wingmen

[m1tp2king]

i am playing lock on origional. when i order my wingman to engage a single ( F-15 ) target my wingman gets shot down every time. i can easily destroy one target, but if i come againgst 2 ( F-15 ) targets my wingman is rubbish, he dies every time.

does anyone have any idea what i should do ?

does the same lame A.I. wingman apply to flaming cliffs ?? or flaming cliffs 2 ?

should i stop playing lockon ?

I guess you haven't seen AI diving into the ground yet :)

ED will fix AI logic, I think.

FC2 wingmen are better at engaging targets right now.

I haven't played the original LockON in forever now. The first thing to try is to actually tell them to turn on their radar. If you don't they try to engage without it, which means getting close enough to use weapon sensors for target acquisition. I'm assuming you're flying Russian and I'm not sure if AI EOS use is the same, but that would still require them to try and get closer than if they use radar.
