It's different for each.
SAC bombers will come in on the entry line and will try to bomb along in a "straight line" the sector to the orders they were given.
It's a wide swath of accuracy but you can be sure any units in or close to the bomb zone will be effected.

Close ground air support will attack anything they see in their vector, radar can't tell a friendly from a tango on the ground.
So bad calls arn't their fault.
One thing about this game some may forget.
The Army "Does not" command the Air Force or the Navy.
