Anti-Air Artillery - doesn't friendly fire?

So I've noticed that Anti-Air Artillery (AAA) (for those of you unfamiliar with military terms) does not hit friendly aircraft that get in the way unlike most weapons in this game. Is that just me? It makes playing Air much harder when the enemy team builds AAA and and it shoots at your aircraft while you're dog-fighting above it. Somehow weapons like Artemis, Thresher, Copperhead, and etc. with large AoE damage do not hit friendly aircraft at all. Meanwhile if a Likho or Phoenix shoots at enemy ground units near friendlies, then the friendly-fire is blatantly obvious.

Am I missing the AAA friendly-fire that does happen or is this working as intended?

quote: I never tried to do dog fighting around tresher or ettin because it will be total suicide in 99,99% cases no matter if they friendly fire own air units.

I don't try either, but sometimes the AAA is new to the area so it happens and I do chase down enemy bombers.

i can also confirm that AA does friendly fire.

1) The anti-air in this game is, for the most part, not artillery.

2) Military terminology for anti-aircraft weaponry is varied; AAA is one of many such terms used.

3) Trying to apply real-world terminology to a contrived computer game is an exercise in futility.
