Anti-Aircraft vehicles can't destroy very high aircraft.

I can't seem to make AA vehicles attack aircraft that are too high no matter what I do. I've seen that AA buildings can do that but I don't see anything relating to it. Maybe buildings have a hardcoded property of being able to hit very high aircraft?

I found the solution but not something I'm happy with. For some reason, smaller weapon range decreases the vertical range. This means high aircraft can avoid the vertical range so there are 2 ways to fix this. Make the range bigger or make the aircraft fly lower. In this case, I made the aircraft fly lower.

How can you make Aircraft fly lower?
Isn't that something only Ares can do?

The standard or default value is 1500 for aircraft. my game unit also attack Aircraft that has 2500 flightlevel. I have to put extra tag to avoid some jumpjet or unit able to attack very high aircraft.

Aircraft flys to low in the game to begin with and it looks really bad when they fly right through buildings so I set mines to fly over them.

Only problem is that you can't select them once you lose visual contact on the screen untill they reappear again.
