We assume low-flying aircraft (1km), so only low and medium-caliber AA guns are relevant in my opinion.

AA guns have the same ranges as aircraft (0-3, 4-5, 6-8)
20 mm CA mle 1938
AA 8/6/3
AntiSoldier 8/8/6
Antitank 3/3/2

Bofors 40 mm
AA 8/9/4
AntiSoldier 7/9/7
Antitank 5/5/4

20mm Flak 30
AA 8/6/3
AntiSoldier 8/8/6
Antitank 3/3/2

Quad 50 as well.

So, you are suggesting that the 88 will not have AA values?

Against fast, low flying attack planes, I would say yes "nada" AA value, against medium and high altitude bombers, that's a different matter.

So, how would a Bofors 40mm (6 AA dice at short range) be able to kill a Messerschmidt Bf 109 K4 (6 Defense) ? How would any AA be able to kill that Messerschmidt Bf 109 K4 ? I dont think they should be hit when dogfighting, but in case of ground attack those AA units should be able to do something.


Or will Fighters have a lower defense while Strafing, just like in War at Sea ?

( / Will any airplane have lower defense while attacking ground units (with Bombs, MG or Rockets) ? )

Correct observation. Units that attack ground troops get -1 defense (strafing, bombing, rockets). It's in the air rules.

I've increased the AA of the Bofors at range 0-3 to 7.

Yes, the 88 can't take part as antiair in an AAM battle.
