How about ack that doesn't target just one plane? Seems silly sometimes the way the auto gunners target one guy and stay on him until he is out of range regardless of the threat posed by another aircraft. Also, seems to really tear up one plane when ground fire is not nearly as accurate.

From what I see, ack targets the nearest plane. The moment another enemy plane comes into range, ack will instantly start shooting at it. I've actually seen ack fire 2 shots at a plane that flies by, only for the gun to instantly do a 180 and the next 2 shots in that 4 shot salvo, to shoot at me. The instantaneous re-targeting thing is a bit "off", to put it mildly.
A crude picture of what I mean is below:
:airplane: <1-- <2-- (gun) --3> --4> :airplane:
If updating the ack guns, give them realistic traversal times as well?

That might work as well. I see them firing all at one target usually even when others are in. Sometimes I have used it to roll in and use a rabbit to decoy them while I deack.
