AI F-26 Gun and Aim-9E bug.

[empty kayak]

This bug possibly extends into the F-45 too, for it's gun only, since it has no rear aspect missiles. sadly.

The F-26 will very rarely use guns. if it is chasing an enemy, it uses it's guns a fraction as much as Redfor AI planes do. and it never ever uses Aim-9E missiles.

Redfor aircraft uses both guns and their rear aspect missiles respectively, just fine, even if a bit delayed.

Here is a video showcasing the bug and that the f-26 AI does... nothing, while chasing an enemy

Slight tangent:
Asf planes' AI works pretty well. they use guns, use missiles and maneuver well, even if their weapons are by far not as good as f26 and f45 weapons.
it could be nice to be able to choose those planes as AI for either red or blue teams, instead of just red, for multiplayer team balancing, or f26 and f45 AI for red teams.

Can you also provide that example mission in the video? Just the .vts should be fine since it's Akutan.

oh crud, I forgot, gimme a moment

this should be the right one

if the f-26 is close enough it will use guns, but... in the times ive tested, thats the only times it will ever use guns and it'll just constantly break off without any offencive action

to a slight extent asf fighters will also have issues with guns, they will never fire until they get really close, but they seem to chase better and do eventually catch up without breaking off constantly

similar/same bug

asf-30 not able to shoot down a av-42 for no reason

AI never exits stable mode to enter aim mode

even tho its armed with both guns and missiles still
