Look at how many attacks per round it gets. That's the catch.

Were there any flak batteries within 1 hex of the SHQ, or SAM launchers within 2 to 6 hexes? Do they have fighters of their own that were running air intercept missions?

<r> It appears that aircraft receive an undisclosed penalty to their ground combat scores based on how many attacks they have.

<t> You can promise them another job to lessen the relations hit and then just fire them anyways, play threaten leader cards or go down the heart profile to increase leader loyalty, and/or pay your reserve pool to keep their happiness up.

<r> What about aircraft getting a negative modifier for having additional attacks? After the multiple attacks divider is applied aircraft with 2 attacks have 25% less soft/hard attack/defense than they should, aircraft with 3 attacks have 33% less, 4 attacks have roughly 42% less and 6 attacks have ...

<r> Well, let's start with the things that are alright. Your leaders are all more or less well suited for their positions.

<t> I think you're misunderstanding how the combat system works. What you're probably seeing as the "defense roll" is actually the defense score, which is the sub-units hitpoints modified by various factors. The base value is hitpoints, this cannot change under any circumstances so it will always be...

<t> Thanks for the credit.<br/> <br/> There's an issue with designs heavier than 1949 weight returning incorrect fuel use values.
