Enemy F-5 Pilots Seem To Eject When Dropping Fuel Tanks

Issue #25 resolved
Bailey created an issue

I started to notice this when I saw that a lot of F5s crashed into terrain with no explanation or reason after engaging them. Then I began realizing that not only were they dropping their 3 fuel tanks, but sometimes there would be a 4th dot on the screen, the pilot. As I type this up I am thinking it might have to do with the AI using the main tank for the plane. This leaves their plane with no fuel right after jettisoning their usable fuel and they eject. Attached is a TacView File with multiple instances where I (Bailey) experence this phenomenon. A possible short term fix would be to replace the F5 aircraft with something else. I would also like to propose that if an enemy crashes into terrain without sustaining damage, that the nearest player receives the (maneuver) kill.

    Should be fixed in 3.0.6, changed the loadout they use and moved their in air spawns closer to the fight so they don't have to burn all of their fuel just getting to the AO
