Interceptor's auto reload?

[Friendly79]

G'day guys..

just wondering if the interceptor craft auto reload after downing a ufo, im sure they do as i haven't had to reload base #1 at all..
base #2's interceptor on the otherhand keeps going down.. took me awhile to find out but as soon as he enters combat it says out of ammo,
ive triple checked it, everytime i manual reload ill down the next ufo no worries, but the following one, "out of ammo" again..

greatly appreciate any idea's, if its a setting i havent checked or somthing..

cheers

Does its base contain a storage facility?, with ammo for its weapon in stock.

New Aircraft have to have its weapons and ammo/equipment/armour ( in a drop down menu) installed.

PS. Always easier to shoot Harvesters down when you have multiple SAM base coverage over your base, and lure the Harvester through that coverage.
