Interesting. With my Vipers supporting Marines, I have the Vipers 200-300 meters behind the infantry formation. When the Vipers pop up to fire, the EW rating should help the Viper survive INF SAM or AA gun fires. On an interdiction mission, if I inadvertently fly into an an adjacent hex of an opposing rifle squad, within 50 meters, the Viper will bug out as expected.
I would like my Vipers to follow a Venom, but the Venoms do not spot threats any better than the Vipers. I would of course prefer the Venoms to "see" much better as they have IR cameras installed on the latest models during aerial recon missions.
