This question probably should have been posted in the World at War A World Divided forum.

However, every unit type has an evasion rating. They can be viewed in the Unit Intelligence Screen.

In combat, when an attacking unit uses a bombardment attack, it rolls its dice and sums them and adds 2 times any modifier (i.e. modifiers are doubled in bombardments). Then the target unit rolls a number from 1 to its Evasion rating (so if the target unit has an Evasion rating of 5 it randomly generates a number between 1 and 5). The attacker's total is divided by that defense number and that equals the number of Suppression points added to the target. If the Suppression points are higher than 5 times the Evasion rating, the unit takes a hit. Otherwise, it carries the suppression through the battle. Suppression points add a negative modifier when that unit attacks and give attacking units a better chance to hit the suppressed unit.

For standard (non-bombardment) combat you roll the dice, add your modifiers and try and hit the target's defense number (which is derived as Evasion x Durability). If you equal or exceed the defense, you score a hit. If you double the defense or higher you score 2 hits and destroy the unit rather than damage it.
