Because of air spawn, strike planes lost their altitude advantage. As example f84’s i was currently playing almost an week now, and they were fun to play, suddenly lost all advantage and are just sitting ducks. There is no way to escape death when going after bases or grounds IF you reach there, but you probably wont, and there is no way to gain altitude advantage to BnZ enemy planes, but because your climb rate is usually worse than fighter planes you will be BnZ’d instead.
