I see only Ground Attack as a skill - not airfield attack. Will training for one or the other accomplish the same thing - Ground Attack Skill

Skill used in Airfield Attack is either GroundHigh or GroundLow, depending on altitude used.

OK thanks. Also-

I saw a post somewhere that listed the altitudes for high vs low training for all trainings.... anyone know where that might be or a link?

Thanks.

Thanks.

6k is the divider. Below it is Low, above High. I do not remember right now if 6k altitude itself did belong to high or low band, but it is the divider.

I guess an easier question-

4e bombers will have high alt attack
does that mean all of my dive bombers will want better low alt attack numbers?

Dive bombers act differently, as do Torpedo bombers...those train Dive Bombing or Torpedo Bombing.

Between 10-15k DB does dive bombing and uses DiveB skill.

If you set Dive bomber between 6k-10k, it will perform Glide attack and use (IIRC) relevant High skill.
Under 6k it will use relevant Low skill.

There are those DB altitudes on forum, search michaelm posts (or maybe he will clarify himself these).
