The 3rd party devs are doing a work on the AI for IL2 1946 with UP as I understand.
In fact, constant improvements in AI are being mentioned.
If that is true, the fruit may not be falling too far from the tree.
Skouras...
Buddye is main stay on the AI performance package for BOB II WOV. He has posted several times in this thread, and might be persuaded at some point to help improve the COD AI performance.
You can't get better help than the man that made the BOB II WOV the best AI of any WW2 air combat simulator in my experience.
Also, your video is for 2.08 version. There have been an additional 3 patch releases since then.
The AI performance was a prominent feature of those releases.

I recently reinstalled the BOB II WOV. I was always put off by the lack of a competent mission builder and no multiplayer online game.
I think some enthusiasm for the BOB WOV died off a bit with the release of BOB COD, because everyone's expectations are high for the COD.
Luthier is staying with it hot and heavy, so those expectations may not be misplaced.
