I look forward to getting the URL. I've played around with the mission a bit further and have come up with some surprising results:
1. The AI does seem to be "Intelligent" in the sense that they almost never do the same thing twice, which probably throws the idea of strictly controlling them out the window.
2. At least one Alert Intercept a/c DID respond on at least one occasion.
3. That same a/c flew towards me and then suddenly turned back and landed ahead of me on the carrier, no idea why.
A question though, why must the Alert Intercept guys have a SEAD loadout to respond? I usually want them for CAP duties when I run out of a/a ammo.
