Turn 8 of my game with K62.
The Soviets launch 92 Interdiction missions around Odessa and not one intercepted by the Axis AS covering the area.
I can see anything wrong with the AS AD and there are supplies at the air base.

I ran your air phase for turn 8 and got 16 interceptions in the Black Sea and 84 a/c listed as shot down by the AS directives. This was with 1.02.14. I can't explain how you got 0.

Ok, just noticed that you have a turn 7 battle report showing. I looked at the Soviet turn 7 save and your JG that was assigned to the Black Sea AS mission had no fuel at its airbase. I can only assume that flying in both player turns 7 days a week it ran out of fuel during the German turn and had none left for the Soviet turn.

OK, thanks Joel. That explains it.
I had checked that that air base had supplies and had assumed that AS with Range 0 didn't use up fuel as they don't have any ops losses. However it seems they do build up air miles and fuel even if there are no intercepts.

I saw you had a size 8 box for the AS AD, so the fighters were effectively flying around the box and using fuel.
