AI's Furious-Copter

[Borscope]

I recently played against the AI Russians, and a brace of Hinds were shooting me up.

One of my previously hidden units op-fired at one, and the target Hind raced over to an adjacent hex and proceeded to open up with everything it had.

It was odd in that it seemed like a reaction move (like when a Helo evades and moves super-fast compared to normal movement). Also, the adjacent hex thing was very odd.

Is this normal? I only ask because I don't want one of mine to do that (the Hind in question wound up in the midst of a dug-in mech inf company and got swatted).

(Sorry, too stunned to save-game)
