    • AI will use airspeed and altitude based on Skill Level to optimise missile launch kinematics. It will try to be fast and high.
    • AI will maximise distance between aircraft and target at time of missile impact, based on Skill Level, by using offsets (crank) and reduced airspeed.
    • Based on Skill Level, AI will appropriately use lead, pure, and lag intercept geometry.
    • AI will use a low slice in an offset/crank manoeuvre to force an incoming missile into denser air, provide the AI more manoeuvrability, and force hostile radar into a look-down.

    • AI will randomly use the direction of offsets (cranks) and notches.
    • Use chaff when the missile is 60 degrees off the nose. This allows the AI to use chaff more effectively when abeam of the threat radar.
