This was especially true in the USSR air force. Also, I'm not above stealing the AI's smoking victim from time to time
Yeah, I steal back kills from them too but it's a little hollow and not as satisfying as getting your own kill. Also there are times when I'm able to steal a kill back by putting a few bullets in the plane at the last second. But you sometimes have to trail that plane for a while to do it, while you otherwise could be getting on a new pursuit and new kill.

But I don't think it would hurt to get a key command to dissuade kill steals. People who don't mind having an occasional kills stolen would not have to use it. Or you folks who think it's kind of true to history would not have to use the command either. I'm just sayin'.....
