Luftwaffe losses in 1940

[JDR Dragoon]

The problem hinted at here is, that airpower remains almost perfectly intact and potent throughout the game, be it PzC or MC (barring stupid decisions to airstrike strong stacks containing multiple battalions and/or AA, suffering heavy losses going in). This is because that when a plane gets intercepted by either aircraft or AA/SAMs, it is merely expended and moved to the rear of the airstrike queue. There is no losses and gain in fatigue associated with an intercept. If there was a variable number of losses and/or a fatigue gain associated with being intercepted, you would likely see loss numbers closer to what you would expect based on historical records/recent experience and aircraft units would suffer a corresponding erosion of their effectiveness.
