Aviation support question

Post by KenchiSulla »

Thought I saw a reference earlier but can't find it: Question

How is aviation support treated (assuming support is working at 100% efficiency)

- 1 aviation support against 1 engine?
- 1 aviation support against 1 frame?

Or?

Thanks in advance...

1 aviation point for each aircraft + 1 point for each 20k of sortie ammo + 12

Thanks. So a bomber that has an ammo load of 14k would use 3 aviation support?

1 for the aircraft, 2 for 14k+12k=26k rounded up? Or am I misunderstanding...

+12 is permanent requirement for the air base, so if you have 1 plane on the air base with sortie ammo below of 20k it will need 1+12 = 13 av support need to operate 100% efficiency.
