Why Wingman Scatter Order matters
A scatter command is distinct from attacking one target: it gives the flight broader freedom when threats are spread across the combat space.
What is confirmed—and what is not
The official report does not provide exact engagement radius, regroup timing or target-priority logic.
Practical player guidance
Use scatter when several threats need simultaneous attention, then call the flight back when the player needs protection or a concentrated strike.
