The enemy (AI) aircraft missions allow me to see the locations of it's troops. Can someone clue me in why this is allowed?

I don't recall this being the case in earlier versions, but since aircraft missions are so few and far between in the game, maybe I just never noticed.

Thanks,

Yes, this 'phenomenon' has been around a while.

I particularly like it when MY air strikes reveal his entire minefield. :cool:

Air spotting is a problem.
When I buzz over, I can see their entire force composition in one area.
Now matter how good you are a single pass at 300 mph is not going to reveal that much

What Mockingbird is referring to is an old problem; when an [I]enemy[/I] plane flies over the map you see the location of all of [I]his[/I] units. They disappear again during your turn. I'm pretty sure the AI doesn't get the same info when one of your planes makes a run.
