Is there a set rule (in code) for launching c/f. I have recently bought NWAC and am often put out when my fighters get killed because the did not launch chaff when I wanted them to. Also, the AI players launch chaff more than my aircraft.

Chaff and flares are always launched, automatically.
If you don't see them it is because your plane was shot down(then you will not see the animation).

thanks, I didm't think they launched at all. It seems that the computer player's chaff is more effective!
I believe this is just a physiological effect. I hear a talk from Sid Meier about this how they could not show the players the true stats of units because if a player thought he had an 80% chance of winning an encounter he would be very annoyed every time he lost, to the point where he claimed that the AI was cheating. Thus on the easier levels of civilization they lied to the player when it came to winning probability.
