Hello,
thanks for reporting this issue to us.
Could you possibly check if it is repeatable and report it through an ingame bug report so that the devs are made aware of it and can take a closer look?

Another aircraft bug
I reported the other day about a squadron returning instantly to base at the moment of bombardment, saving me 20 minutes of flying time. That bug occurred again today.
However, I have now found a new one related to that one. When my bombers were only 4 minutes from target, I decided to detach one of the interceptors in the group and send it back to base. The instant I did so, the remainder of the bombing group suddenly showed up as 4 minutes from returning to base instead of 4 minutes from target, having executed their mission. The fighter I detached, however, took the correct time to return to base.
This looks potentially like an exploitable bug as if it's repeatable, you only need to detach one aircraft and return it to base in order to get the whole bombing mission to instantly execute its mission and skip most of the return flight.

I have confirmed the bug, in another game. I flew 7 tac bombers, 7 nav bombers and 7 interceptors to a target 7 or 8 minutes away, when I was 2 minutes from the target I sent one of the ints back to base and the rest of the aircraft instantly executed their mission and immediately reappeared heading back toward base with two minutes flying time left - saving about 7 or 8 minutes on the round trip.BenjB wrote:

That should help.

It looks like you only have to change the mission midflight to benefit from this bug. I just changed a bombing mission from one target to another and bingo! my bombers have executed their mission and zipped straight back to base without having to fly back yet again.
