Each Radio Operator squad starts off with the standard 5 bombers at the beginning of each round. If any of these bombers are shot down, they will not be replenished
If one bomber is shot down during a run, the next run will have 4 bombers. If 2 more are shot down, the next run will have 2 bombers. If one is shot down during the next run, the radio operator’s airstrike will remain as a single bomber. If that last bomber is shot down, the player will no longer be able to use the airstrike command.
The number of bombers, full, decreased, or diminished - will remain that way throughout the whole round (radio operator squad airstrike squadron does not replenish upon respawn or switching to another radio operator).

they should replenish through time or they would be too weak
you can set them on fire and they will slowly die. AI does not compensate for damage.
AA guns work ok against bomber, can shoot down ~3 bombers in a pass.
just fighter cannons are shite.

? MAYBE THATS WHY WE SEE THE RUSSIA large AA CANNON
INCOMING FERATHURE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
so I shot 75mm Heat rounds into a po 2 hover over head. both direct hits and nothing
plane damage models really wrong
AA Guns does wonders to them…
This is a reason I feel that shot down bombers should not return, given their durability.
