[1.05b19] Airbase and recon plane disappear

My airbase and plane on a hex some 10 hexes away from SHQ disappeared after end of a turn. It was not attacked as i checked history; and the unit icons are still on that hex at end of the history overview and afterwards there is no enemy unit on the hex. Once i click through the VID segment post history the airbase and plane that was there is just gone.
I reloaded the save from that turn and re-ran it only to find the airbase and plane remains intact, so wasn't able to reproduce it.

Did the airbase have any damage points?
best wishes,

Reloading the save leading up to end of turn where it disappeared the first time, it shows Damage: 300 points. I guess it has been attacked a few times without my knowledge and was finished off.
I didn't think to check this. So i presume then this airbase was getting air bombed by the Ai? and perhaps when i resume play it doesn't disappear because the Ai didn't finish it off?
So in future i will place AA units at air bases.
Question: Will enemy airstrikes be shown in History? Will we get to know what attacked eg. tactical bomber etc.
what would be nice is perhaps seeing an explosion on a hex and a second later seeing the enemy Ai air unit on the hex that did the attack. Usually in history attacks are shown via red arrows of which direction and we can see the enemy icons/flags adjacent and a tally of forces of either side. Also maybe if an friendly AA managed to shoot down the enemy air unit there could be a red diagonal line through the enemy air unit on the hex it attacked. Something like this might help us work out what is being attacked by air.

Could also be the case that its upkeep wasn't getting paid due to logistical issues?
Ideally I should add a report on lost Assets and reason why, making a note of this.
