Planes on port strikes are ten times less visible.Īt most three times as many own planes can attack as enemies are visible, so good detection is important to fully utilize available air wings, especially when the enemy has fewer planes.

Planes on close air support mission are twice as visible.

Regular bombers on strategic bombing mission and carrier-based bombers can reduce their visibility with the "Strategic bombing visibility" modifier (Infiltration Bombing doctrine: -50%).

The fighters and bombers don't need to be from the same enemy country.

If the enemy side includes both ground missions and superiority fighters, the latter will be fully visible.

The number of visible planes can be further modified: Only this percentage of enemy planes will be visible.

Bad weather: reduces detection by up to 90%.

Air missions: Planes operating in the region yield up to 80% detection chance (with 3000 planes, non-fighters only counting half).

Radar: Radar coverage yields up to 50% detection chance (at full radar coverage).

Occupation: Occupying land in the strategic region enables spotting planes from the ground and yields a chance of up to 10% (when controlling the whole region).

The detection chance depends on multiple factors The prerequisite for attack is the ability to detect the enemy. Enemy countries are any that this country ( or the host country of air volunteers) is at war with.

In this phase, own air wings will try to attack the enemy, both by directly damaging them and, in the case of enemy ground missions, disrupting them.
