I don't know if this has been reported before, but there is something wrong with the strafing behaviour when the leader of a flight is the human player. The AI planes of a flight that is lead by a human player will not attack ground targets, even when an attack command is given. This only happens when the planes are not equipped with bombs or rockets. Bomb or rocket attacks are correctly performed by the AI. When the human player is not leading the flight and is just a wingman, the AI will correctly do the strafing attacks, but the players plane will not take part in the attack when flown on autopilot.
I have upload two test missions (see attachment).
In the first the human player is the wingman and the AI planes will strafe the target, but the players plane will not attack when flown on autopilot. In the second mission the player is the flight leader and the AI will not do a strafing attack.
