Default will we encounter friendly air also?

will we only see enemy air units, or will we also encounter friendly air units looking to visually identify us...possibly with the potential for mis-ID and attacks by friendly units. Thus requiring we provide morse coded responses to blinker(light) gun challenges at night.

I haven't read anything that can answer your questions, but I would love to see that level of detail modeled in the AI. I think it would certainly make for a more immersive and enjoyable gameplay experience.

I dont think there will be morse code blinker lights, but I would be very surprised it there are no friendly air units. I think it should at least have all the Greywolves features present and more.
They cant be outdone twice in 2 games by a mod for the first game.

This is what we know this far.
  • There will be friendly air units, dynamic and scripted.
  • If one goes down near you, you may be tasked with rescuing its crew.
  • AI units will communicate, presumably in morse code, using signal lights.
Beyond that... we don't know. Wait and see!
