Would an glide bomb without an engine even have enough of an IR signature for an IR AAM to lock on to?

Large airbases get their aviation support doubled. I THINK its airfield 8+ that causes it, but I haven't read the patch notes in a while.

I've seen Nates and Claudes shoot down P-40s before, and even B-17s(Rarely).

I've been having computer trouble recently so I couldn't reply earlier, yes this was what I was looking for.

Thank you for the help!

<t> I hope this helps:<br/>

1: You are correct.<br/>
<br/>
2: I think that may be correct, as I seem to recall michaelm mentioning it some time ago, but cannot find the relevant post.<br/>
<br/>
3: I'm pretty sure that assigning air units to recon but not assigning a target should work ...

I am trying to find the files for the three Barbarossa DCGs, but I can't find them in the East Front folder with the other DCGs. Are they somewhere else or are they hard coded in some way?

Does it mean that if I set attack bombers to attack airfield/port/city/ground targets between 1000-5000 feet they will always drop to 100 feet? That can be pretty devastating for the attack bombers fly against ground targets.

Actually it does, as can be seen in the pictures provided by zuluhour.

As far as I am aware, others have done this and have not reported problems, but the last I saw that was about a year ago, and I have not tried it myself, so if someone else knows, I would like to know A definite answer myself.

True, but it is something to keep in mind, also attack bombers especially against ground targets tend to lose large numbers of pilots. Though as you said the Russians get plenty of Il-2's, they can still run out, or at least run out of good pilots for them.

It should work, but you will need to be mindful of attack bombers tendencies, i.e. that they go on strafing runs at any altitude of 6k or less. This can cost you a lot of aircraft if you forget about it.

That would be nice, and might help with some aircraft never arriving in thee pools due to low replacement rates.

They do not receive more Russian planes, but a few month after the game's start you will get American aircraft for these units, as they are available you may upgrade the air units to the American aircraft, possibly freeing up a few Russian imports for the squadrons that still use them.

I believe that it should be the same as for naval bombing, so I think off-hand is below 5-6 thousand feet.

<t> The pilots tab in the editor is for historical pilots, these are added one at a time into the provided slots, if you are asking how to add generic pilots to a nation, then that is under the scenario tab, at the bottom of the left side is a button that says pilots, pres that and you can modify ...

I think that would best be posted in scenario design and modding.

This is an issue I noticed quickly, all air move types have a move cost of zero on forest loaf snow. This is according to both the unit info, and in game play.

As far as I know they should work fine, I did some sand boxing a while ago and I recall using them to fairly good effect.

In the editor for the stock scenarios there are a few convoys set up with aircraft, so I would assume that it works the same as the land devices in them.
