I would prefer to see the behaviour either not changed or modifiable. AAA in many cases engaged targets on the ground. The most famous examples would be the Flak 88mm that the Germans pressed into anti-tank service with very successful results. Other AAA types were also used and many placed machine guns in-game engage air and ground targets.
There are two solutions of which one already exists. Change the maximum range engagement which is already a feature. If you want AAA not to engage, define a minimum fire distance closer than the ground objects. Not perfect but workable in many situations.
The second would be to define by some sort of toggle. This would be an addon feature. Engage: Ground Only, Ground+Air, Air Only.
But I think it would be a loss to some scenarios (I have some in past campaigns) if primarily AAA guns were not shooting at vehicles/tanks.
