Re: Flak woes.
Don't rely exclusively on AAA units for air defense. Make sure as many vehicles as possible have an AAMG. Hit probabilities are low for all AA types in this period so you need volume of fire to increase the probability of something scoring a hit.
Also worth bearing in mind that some countries have infantry AAMG units. These are cheap and mobile to supplement fixed AA guns.
Despite relatively poor performance AA units have a useful capability against ground units, especially infantry and soft vehicles, so they aren't totally useless. But it is inevitable that some planes will get through. If AA defenses had been really effective the significant contribution of Allied airpower to victory could not have happened.
