AI bomber's gunners can't shoot at ground targets?

[Vendigo]

Hi all, I have a mission with AI-controlled bombers (He-111's) flying low over the battlefield and I wonder - is there a way to make their gunners shoot at the enemy ground entities?

Setting the waypoint's Priority to "Low" doesn't seem to work, neither does adding the respective AttackArea MCU... 

Will appreciate any advice, thank you!

I don't think you can get the ai gunners to attack ground targets consistently. I assume the gunners are children of the plane itself, meaning if the plane is set to "attack ground targets" with a command AttackArea MCU, then the gunners will attempt to attack ground targets too. Having said that, it's probably to difficult for the gunners to make a successful attack because of the angle limitations - hence the lack of ai gunners attacking ground targets consistently.

 

 

TLDR: It's not possible

@Sketch it's not about hitting targets, I just want to create a scenario where a He-111 is passing low over the enemy airfield and the gunners are shooting away, trying to add to the panic beneath..

I think, you can order your AI gunners to shoot at the ground targets via the in-game command menu - but it isn't possible to recreate this command for an AI-controlled He-111 in the Full Mission Builder, is it?
