The Warbirds 2 offline AI drones from way back in '98 could beat alot pilots in here i bet, was a big furball and they used pretty good basic ACM, or you could set it on "Bomber Attack" and attack a buff formation,that would kill ya if you settled on thier six.
A great tool to work on manuevers and gunnery.
And having a usefull TA map is a must and cant believe we dont already have one goin, targets, structures your allowed to bomb and ships etc, and a tight narrow winding canyon for races
