Small oversight? Or intentional?

How come fighter planes can't attack ground units? They should be able to do interdiction and close air support. Most nations had dual purpose fighter-bombers during WW II. They ought to be able to help attack a ground attack just like another unit in the battle (CAS, assuming good weather in that hex of course.) Other than this one possible omission I'm loving this game.

This is intentional.
We have found that such dividing of air units will force player to use more tactics and planning

Welcome at the forum BTW.

OK, I can buy that, even if I don't agree 100%. And thanks for the welcome.
