This update adds the following...
New formation commands allow you to set your desired flight formation as follows...
Vee - Standard formation
Abreast - Flight will form a horizontal line
Trail - Flight will follow directly behind each other
Echelon Left - Staggered formation to the left
Echelon Right - Staggered formation to the right
Wingmen's turrets now start in "auto" mode allowing them to target things independently and also fire their turrets while on the move. I thoroughly recommend taking a flight of 4 x AH-56A Cheyenne helicopters and simply fly your formation over the enemy letting their twin turrets wipe everything out ːsteamsunnyː
Wingmen will now utilise Chaff when something locks on to them increasing their survivability from Radar SAMs and Radar AAA. This also effects fixed wing aircraft (e.g. A-10 & Su-25). Before they would only deploy Chaff on incoming Radar guided missiles.
