My bad.

Don’t know if this will solve it for you, but in general, stacking AI commands can cause a non-response. Usually giving a ‘rejoin’ clears it up for them, then give them the command you really wanted.
In your words it did break your control, sorta, you gave them something, now reset it with a rejoin before issuing another. -

ah yes, I see that now.
Seems in the past that giving the RTB command would be the last one you could give. Here, it sounds like they joined up with you after the refuel
and behaved as they were with you and not operating on a RTB command. -

It sounds silly, but it’s the way they were flying. They were robotically glue to one another make it seem like all three were a single entity which initially drew my attention to them. Then I noticed that they were responding to orders, but nor fulfilling them.

Giving a RTB command while on the AAR routine probably broke the AI brain

Yeah that was my thought, and also my fault. I wasn’t really flying super seriously, but knew 3 and, particularly, 4 were short on gas. The tanker was a good 60nm from home plate, so in hindsight I should have not given the RTB command as they wouldn’t have made it safely.
-
To be honest, if you sent me home while forming on the tanker because I called bingo, you’d have broken my organic brain as well.
-
Was there anytime after giving them the RTB that you heard them contact ATC?
You should have heard them.
The point being that if you didn’t hear them, maybe they didn’t hear you.The AI will verbally respond to a command when in fact they didn’t hear it.
The way (or I should say, ‘a way’) to tell is if they don’t do the command.Could be something else in your scenario, but this explanation is plausible as you didn’t clarify on that point.

Speaking from as a ‘self appointed’ (they wanted to keep it secret) representative of the AI, we, (I mean they) certainly appreciate your kind consideration!!!
