Xian gunners have trouble using AG missiles. It is virtually impossible to acquire lock unless the target is right in the aircraft nose axis. The tolerance is very small to the point where AG is barely usable and the combat value of the aircraft is severely limited.

Steps To Reproduce
- Get into Xian as gunner. Switch to AG missile.
- Lock a target with "reveal target" or "next target" keys.
- Wait for the missile lock animation to complete.
Expected result: the missile locks within a few seconds within a reasonable aim cone, say 30 degrees from aircraft nose. The pilot gets an audio cue (beeping sound) when the missile locks.
Actual result: the missile locks within 1-3 degree aim cone. There is no lock feedback for the pilot.

This is likely caused by one particular mission replacing Xian's Skalpel missiles with Titan AT. Since last patch they have much narrower locking cone (7 vs 50 degrees). I contacted the mission developers and am waiting for a confirmation whether this is truly a mission bug.
