3. Select Smolensk map.
4. Select 4 Il-2M or IL-2Type3 for the players flight with default weapons or rockets.
5. Set tanks as targets.
6. Set altitude to 1000.
7. Fly the mission with autopilot.
The Il-2s will do a silly roll at low altitude and all crash into the ground.

At least with Ace level AI, this only seems to happen with one of the planes in the flight, and only if they collide with a hill while pulling out of a dive.
It might be a ground-sensing issue, in that the AI doesn't anticipate what the ground level at the place where the plane pulls out of its dive. Its possible that the problem could be fixed by making ground attack planes pull out of dives a bit earlier or by having the AI check on what the highest ground level is within 180 degrees and X meters of the plane's current course.
