Not only 'do' they miss the intended target hex but, I just finished a France 1940 scenario where my Stukas attacked my panzers almost as much as they attacked the French.

Don't call in air attacks close to your units if under 4-500m make sure they come in at an angle that overflys the enemy first. Depending on what they are carrying looking for infantry or armour targets including you if you are in the target area.

I seem to have the bad luck of them using their machine guns on armor then dropping their bombs 1-2 hexes away after strafing.
