Short answer is no, you’ll incur more Axis air losses for little to no gain on D2+.

Thanks.

Based on the ADs that came with the latest beta and some adjustments like:
- loadout(small bombs)
- fuel tanks for fighters
- some expansion of AD boxes to cover more AFs
- some new AD boxes(tried to hit AFs around Polotsk but only 1 was attacked)
- removal of any recon
I got a pretty decent result for the first try.
Axis losses = 91
Soviet = 4232
Thanks to everyone who contribute in this thread!

There was an update while back which improved Soviet Fighter's interception chances IIRC.

...If I may give you an tip,....don't bother too much with T1 Air :lol: ...if this holds you from advancing at least, in the end you will most likely have plenty of planes in stock.
