Zovs -> RE: Air recon (1/11/2022 4:23:49 PM)

Yes there is I thought I posted this someplace but can't find it. I'll be adding to my Axis AAR vs. thedoctorking in a few days, but here is the general idea.
For Recon Missions, do not use Number of Strikes Auto(x) - where x = the area of the mission - and Req AC(Esc) of Auto(Auto). You will get massive recon losses. You'll need to experiment but what I am finding is the following works for me.
Altitude: 22000
Min. Weather: Poor
Intensity: Low
Schedule: D1 and D7
% to fly: 20
Mission AC %: 100
Escort AC %: 25
For each of the Recon AD I set them based on specific factors (like escorts or not, or a 'gut' feeling of where flak maybe or units may be hiding and the recon units themselves, such as Hungary and Rumanians are not as good as the Slovakians and Germans in my experience).
Number of Strikes: 1
I only set it to 2 for ports for right now with an area of 1, for all others the area does not matter, but I usually use 2-4.
Req AC (Esc):
24(8) seems to be a sweet spot if you have escorts in range and the losses are not that bad, 12(4) if only partial escorts and 4(auto) or 3(auto) if no escorts.
At 24(8) you get good DL at +6 to +12 and sometimes higher. For 12(4) I have seen +1 to +6 and for 6(x) generally +1 with some 0.
Losses can still be high if you get unlucky rolls, but in general with the beta .14 patch (I am a tester) I am seeing lower losses.
