As I've said in other threads, given the point cost/damage done ratio I think aircraft are far to expensive in WinSPMBT...but they're fun to play with !
Given cost/benefit ratio I personally find helo's to be far more effective vs vehicles. Tho I'll freely admit a nice bomb/napalm run will mess up infanty far more effectively then anything else in the game.
And unless you're targeting a fixed target (fortification, most AI artillery, etc.) you target an area with aircraft and let it pick it's target because its impossible select a specific target for an airstrike.

I've done airstrikes both ways and found if you pinpoint a target then even if it moves few hexs it will find it.
But that maybe the target didn't move or moved slowly.
Most airstrikes come in 3 turns or less opposed to 6 or more for bombers.
Tried second guessing where it "target" will move and got disaster.
just my 2 cents worth
