7) If you want your Air Strikes to hit anything be careful! We have SEAD, COIN, and normal airstrikes already which indicates preferential treatment to targets found.

Not so obvious is the attraction towards newly (destroyed/created) crews which will draw most of the airstrikes.

Equally, not obvious is this... DO NOT EVER USE Ammo units for your artillery, mortars, SAMs for AI purposes. Airstrikes zone in on them preferentially as well as new units of crews which have a formation ID of the probably same Formation ID.

Dispersal of the airstrikes is likely ineffective with recommended 5 or 6 range as suggested.

Given previous comments vis a vis clear LOS Forward Observers... doesn't seem anything will change this at all. Best results are to arrange Airstrikes 1 turn at a time without any above clutter obfuscating things (no other possible targets within 500m/10 hexes)
