Yes, the AI frustrates folks, it is a work in progress. And sometimes the AI can be pretty impressive. The Devs continue to make AI improvements.

One of my favorite QMB matchups is flying the Mig 3 against an ace in a 109 G2. The ace will make me chase to 6000m and into a turning stall fight. It is then up to me to keep the ace off my six or in position for head-on where his aim is often deadly. If that doesn't work the AI will repeatedly dive then zoom and try to get me to stall out below him. My work load is pretty high in the Mig, needing to maintain coordinated control inputs and keep engine temps in check. These fights can easily consume 30 minutes or more. Even when I win I don't feel the mission is a success unless I make a good landing. I find it difficult to believe AI is working as well as I would like when I place multiple AI in QMB, but in 1v1 matchups it seems like I can get a good fight if I force myself into, what are for me, challenging matchups.
