Continous Flight Plan -Tankers and CAPs-

[DevastatorCM]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In some cases a single planned tanker might land before mission finishes due to low gas and leaves the squadrons without A2A refueling options

Describe the solution you'd like Would be great to be able to plan some tanker flights as continous flight via some options like

• Tanker RTBs on low gas but after some delays it takes off (simulating it refueled on the ground) and goes back to initial pattern
• A new tanker (if there is any) is triggered to take off right after the initial one decides RTB

Same idea can be used for CAP flights Instead of trying to pinpoint the flight times to keep on-going CAP in a given area, it would be great if we can chain multiple CAP flights which will work in following way assuming 2 flights (can be upto X flights) are chained via GUI; 1- 1st cap flight starts cap as planned 2- 1st flight is either destroyed or decided RTB, the 2nd flight takes over the role and takes off (maybe after some delay) to the same location to provide further CAP on the given area

This approach can be used also by enemy flights for some specific areas (not all to make it maybe more realistic for enemy AI)

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Planner already schedules 2 BARCAP, 2 Tanker missions when 'Desired Flight Time' is 60 mins, one immediately and one 30 mins later. This logic could be extended to encompass last flight TOT, perhaps? Basically, extrapolate flight time of last scheduled flights, and ensure that the 'boxes' of support encompass those flights. So a flight scheduled TOT at 1:30 should trigger 4 support flight packages (BARCAP, Tanker, AWACS, etc)?
