--- **AI** - Models the process of air to ground SEAD engagement for airplanes and helicopters.

-- This is a class used in the @{AI.AI_A2G_Dispatcher}.

--- @type AI_A2G_SEAD
-- @extends AI.AI_Air_Patrol#AI_AIR_PATROL
-- @extends AI.AI_Air_Engage#AI_AIR_ENGAGE


--- Implements the core functions to SEAD intruders. Use the Engage trigger to intercept intruders.
-- 
-- ![Banner Image](..\Images\deprecated.png)
-- 
-- The AI_A2G_SEAD is assigned a @{Wrapper.Group} and this must be done before the AI_A2G_SEAD process can be started using the **Start** event.
-- 
-- The AI will fly towards the random 3D point within the patrol zone, using a random speed within the given altitude and speed limits.
-- Upon arrival at the 3D point, a new random 3D point will be selected within the patrol zone using the given limits.
-- 
-- This cycle will continue.
-- 
-- During the patrol, the AI will detect enemy targets, which are reported through the **Detected** event.
-- 
-- When enemies are detected, the AI will automatically engage the enemy.
-- 
-- Until a fuel or damage threshold has been reached by the AI, or when the AI is commanded to RTB.
-- When the fuel threshold has been reached, the airplane will fly towards the nearest friendly airbase and will land.
-- 
-- ## 1. AI_A2G_SEAD constructor
--   
--   * @{#AI_A2G_SEAD.New}(): Creates a new AI_A2G_SEAD object.
--
-- ## 3. Set the Range of Engagement
-- 
-- An optional range can be set in meters, 
-- that will define when the AI will engage with the detected airborne enemy targets.
-- The range can be beyond or smaller than the range of the Patrol Zone.
-- The range is applied at the position of the AI.
-- Use the method @{#AI_AIR_PATROL.SetEngageRange}() to define that range.

-- # Developer Note
-- 
-- Note while this class still works, it is no longer supported as the original author stopped active development of MOOSE
-- Therefore, this class is considered to be deprecated
