Evasive Ship AI

[Charon]

I hope with all the effort going into ships as part of Normandy, we get some small improvements to naval AI. In particular, I'd like ships to have the ability to take evasive maneuvers when under attack. Right now, it seems like they only follow their waypoints, which makes them easy targets. You can even use level bombing against them without too much difficulty.

 

Obviously, this sort of maneuvering doesn't make sense in all circumstances, so should be up to the mission designer. IIRC, trucks have a "Panic Stop" command which causes them to pull off the road and halt. Could ships be programmed to take evasive action when given the same Panic Stop command?
