Believe it or not,AI drops bouy to evade torps!
The doctrines don't suggest that this would be happening.

It's probably dropping the buoy for some reason other than trying to spoof the torpedo.

This is another aspect of AI behavior that seems to be hardcoded, as I can't find the doctrine that controls buoy dropping for surface platforms either, so the secret is locked somewhere in the engine.

Maybe it's dropping the buoy so it can track the torpedo during high speed evasion? That's actually not a bad tactic to employ on the human-controlled FFG. :hmm:
