<t>Yes that did it. Under 2.11 the army pilots lost some of their shine.<br/>
<br/>
They can still do a decent job if they are massed against a slow moving convy. I just wish there was a way to prohibit targets.<br/>

Whenever I set the B-17s to Naval attacks, off they fly to Rabal and get ...

<t>Bomber VS. fighter combat losses should be much less bloody. If a bomber gets a lucky shot in on a fighter he will almost always be able to peal off and land. If the fighter gets a hit on the bomber it will turn away dropping its load and the fighter will probably go after a fresh bomber instead ...

Does UV take range into concideration when assigning casualties?

Minor damage during a 50 mile strike could easily become fatal at 300 miles. Also pilots defending friendly troops and ships had a much higher rate of survival than those attacking distant enemy bases.

<t>I used to be in the camp that said "Army Piolots can't hit a barn they were standing in" but no more.<br/>

Using PM as a Level Bomber basein June of '42 without any of the nice long range stuff (since my B-17s have been shot to pieces) I am getting 15-20 bomb and torpedo hits a day on ...
