What happens to AA and closure with lag pursuit?

In a lag pursuit, the flying formation aircraft intentionally positions itself behind the lead aircraft, creating a distance known as lag. In this scenario, angular separation (AA, or aspect angle) will tend to decrease because the pursuing aircraft is not directly aligned with the lead, which affects their relative positions. Furthermore, closure, which refers to the rate at which the distance between the two aircraft is closing, also decreases because the aircraft in lag pursuit is intentionally set at a farther distance and may not be maintaining a direct flight path toward the lead. Therefore, both angular separation and closure decrease in this type of pursuit, resulting in the answer being that both AA and closure will decrease.
