''They used the Defiant before the Hurricane, imagine that!''
OMG, I never knew that, the blind leading the blind!
It would be doable in missions as the Havoc and AI Hurricanes/Defiant(!) being signalled to attack, same as in CFS2. With you as the Hurricane/Defiant, as the Havoc is unarmed and maybe tweaking the AI Havoc version's airfile/cfg, you could signal it to attack, and being only marginally faster or same as the enemy ac, it may be able to stay on it's tail longer. But can you have illumination from an AI ac in CFS3? or have another AI Havoc model with a permenant simulated light cone/source?
