The changes in combat may be to make the game more appealing to players who are new to Ace Combat, as a supposed general trend of games becoming easier with more guidance these days. Sometimes I feel that they hurt more than they bring good, mostly with some design oversight or bugs, but perhaps with a bit of refinement and less restricted control the CRA can shine out better as a supporting, rather than "compulsory" feature.
