DL and sweeps

Post by Yakkface »

Does the DL of an enemy base affect the air combat result of fighter sweep missions?

So, all else being equal will the sweeping fighters generally get better exchange rates with the CAP if the base has been subject to recon and has a high DL?

As far as I know the DL of the base (by the enemy) only helps the enemy's bombing/strafing attacks. Fighters do not have a DL on where the enemy fighters are until they spot them or ground radar vectors them in that direction.
