If the flares killed people they landed on, it would be a source of many lol's.

well its hardly likely you'd not endorse it, it being your idea and all... :p

I would agree that adding damage to flares might be interesting, though I doubt it will make that much difference (and may potentially cause people to start using them as offensive weapons. I can just see the Merlins on "attack runs" over basrah now...)

As for automatic deployment you'd have to ask CAS or some such. But personally I think the current system where one has to drop speculative flares while in an area that could have enemy SAMs in works quite well

I would like to have something like that yes, although manual flare deployment must still be possible.

But i think such things are hardcoded.

I think Flares should not been like they are at this moment. The pilot should just a have a number of them like 30. So they have to get back on the airport to get new one. Its more realistic and i also thing, that they should be remaked that they are brighter and that they look more like the original one.
