I've noticed that when playing with AI-controlled allies there are some unintentional issues with FOW. For instance, it looks like FOW is recalculated when the human player presses the End Turn button. This causes undesirable effects such as using your aircraft to scout terrain, then as soon as you end the turn your AI allies lose visibility on all you revealed.

Many times I've spotted enemy ships/subs and as soon as I ended the turn the AI couldn't see them anymore. To get around this I usually step in and manually control those friendly AI's units, but regardless I doubt this is done intentionally by design. Most likely the recalculate FOW event should only fire after all allied players have finished their turn.

Thanks for the report and I've tried killing the extra FoW recalculation as you've noted and it seems to be fine on my end so I'll include this as an adjustment for the next update as well.
