Is airpower useful in WinSPMBT?

[hveldenz]

Are airstrikes ever worth the points? It seems any A-10 worthog or A6E Intruders, either with AP clusters cannot hit the broadside of a barn. Even if they overfly 8-10 tanks in the path, and survive countless SAMs/AAgun/AAmgs they rarely kill or damage anything. In the old SP-II, atleast AP cluster bombs did kill something per flight. Comments? Are there better air missions to purchase. I am playing US 1990 era campaign versus china.
