Replying to myself
Just re-read the rather cryptic comment from Team Daidalos on first page:
"We are confident that with new AI improvements, players will be able to use more advanced tactics in fight with/against AI - many things you have read about in WWII pilots memoirs will now work in this sim too. All in all, we want to give a clear message to AI: "Beware of the Hu(n)man in the Sun!" "
(my emphasis)

Excellent - look forward to bouncing unsuspecting AI out of the sun!!
Revenge will be sweet
