FMB Stuka Escort problem

Hi guys I'm just editing a mission in wich me and my friends have to divebomb some tankers over the PortSmouth Harbour. I've setted two flights of Bf with their waypoints targets setted on our waypoints. The problem is that when the enemies reach us our escort start to fight and leave us alone, so while our escort si fighting against some enemie's aircraft the rest of the enemies start follow us from there to the Obj doing a massacre... So how to let our escort to protec us better?

You could let one of the escorts spawn late, so they would maybe not get diverted. Or you could set the enemy waypoints 2-3k lower than yours so he would have to climb first before giving you a chase.

I'll choose the second! The first enemy's flight will be on our altitude and the second will be at 1000 Mt. (Our Alt is 3000..)
Thank you mate!
I suggest u to watch my video Task Force 17

It's in the video's topic

Divide your escorts, and make sure that the first flight will engage the enemy as in an advanced escort. Avoid the furball, and keep the second fight back with you.

Quite posible also to task a close escort that will engage and not return and have a 2nd and 3rd flight meet you at another designated point, 1st flight engages on contact, 2nd flight links up at near target engages as needed and third flight meets you 20k away from target on return flight. also task a 2 plane flight with a box patrol at 10km radius from your base airstart and their starting time is when you begin landing pattern to cover your landing.
