So from what I understand about Aegis, is that in RL it coordinate missile volleys amongst all ships in the link. But.... and this is just from the scenario that I've been testing, looks like in the game currently is that each Aegis ship is really shooting one SM-2 independently to intercept each incoming missile. Put 2 or 3 Aegis ships together and they will increase, or even top off the number of SM-2s per attacking missile, ewhich increase the success rates... so coincidentially they are accidently mimicking real Aegis strategy.

But put a ship alone, where it should be launching 2-3 SM-2 per attacking missile (because it no longer has backup from other Aegis), its still using only 1 missile instead. Using 2 ships together this behavior isn't a problem, but a solo ship isn't compensating.

All that being said, trying to program a behavior that both responds appropriately to solo defense as well as can coordinate amonst a group effort would be..... an absolute nightmare and probably not worth it.

Oh well

db

ps) want me to send you the mission setup I've been using to test the behavior?
