ArmA - How to beat the so-called "good" A.I

I've heard a lot of people moaning about how the ArmA's AI is "very hard" (and some are amazed). The truth is, if you know even a bit of "tactics", you can easily beat these uber-marksman AI, without using your head at all. They're not bad for shooting skills, but they're completely retarded for combat tactics and much more like bunch of Lemmings. So all you need to do is not to being spotted by their "radar".

First, you need to choose a cover for you. Anything that has enough width to cover your body will be fine. Note that you'd better to choose a cover not a concealment just in case. Then you have to stick to the cover, expose only your weapon's barrel and use optics view. Make sure your 1st person view is fully blocked by the cover.
Second, when you pick the target, you'd better to choose a target before you shoot - Sniper, MG, Grenadier and Teamleader. If you want to stop the enemy advance, try shoot the higher ranked soldiers like Sqd Leader. If their "fleeing" state was enabled, they will simply retreat with the SAME way they came. So all you need to do is hunt 'em down one by one.
Same goes for when you're up against enemy armor. The AI never shoot back at you unless they have the "exact" position of their target.

Once you've learned this "tactics" (or probably not that much), you can easily beat any AI opponents at any place. I just used simple situation to help your understanding but don't worry. This tactics apply for any situation/mission (singleplayer campaign, mission and coop game). In fact, the real life military tactics won't apply in ArmA. It's rather dangerous way than effectve.
