Can someone explain the difference in how the game handles CAS versus strike a/c noting the planes appear the same?? Is it how they target or what?? Thanks in advance.

CAS aircraft have 1 in the top armor slot. IF a plane does not have that flag, then it takes a morale check after each attack and failure gives "1 damage" representing aborting the mission to go do other things. CAS aircraft do not take this morale check and so will tend to make repeat runs more often. There is another check both types take to see if they have "good" ammo left and failure there - ie running out of bombs or cannon ammo with good performance - will cause either type to bingo back to rearm.
