Status: offline 		Can you help me understand:
what is the minimum reqs of an airbase to fly 4E bombers like the B-17
what is the ideal reqs at an airbase so that B-17's will fly with full bomb loads?

I could not seem to find this in the manual, in the faq or in the search engine, sorry i probably just missed it.

2. Level bombers on offensive missions require their base supply depot to 2x the supply needs of the base, otherwise the maximum number of ready level bombers is 75%.
