The AI ardently refused to use the better airframes despite researching them.
In my most recent games, I've been playing alot in Europe but noticed something when I got curious when I started to shoot down an unholy amount of aircraft. So I tagged over to the Union of Britain and was wondering what the AI was cooking and found out. THE AI WAS USING THE STARTING AIRFRAME: THE HAWKER FURY WHICH WAS AN INTERWAR AIRFRAME AND THE HIND BASIC CAS AIRFRAME IN 1940! EVEN WORST, I SEEN THEM PUT 15 FACTORIES ON THE FURY AND 10 ON THE HIND. EVEN WORST, I'VE SEEN THEM RESEARCH THE IMPROVED AIRFRAME AND NO NEW DESIGNS TO REPLACE IT.
The AI doing this makes the game frustrating and unfun since they just win with numbers, nations would improve or even replace fighters with new ones and renders all the hard work the model and art creators useless.
Describe the specific change you would like:
Force the AI to utilize the better airframes regardless ae. Improved Small Fighter with 4 Heavy Machine Guns or 2 HMGs and 2 Cannons
Explain the reasoning behind this actionable change:
The AI makes an ungodly amount of basic templates that help them win with numbers. This is especially with CAS where they produce around 10k and just drop it on an airzone turning anything into an instant win for them. This is extremely unfun because my actually creative are just fighting trash and they cant intercept enemy CAS bombers because of this.
Additional context or comments:
This has happened with every single game I play and every nation is effected, I also feel bad for the artists and modelers who spend so much time for their works to not be used at all
