@AC-Phoenix The question people answered what was what the T2 LB Recon is used for. It should be clear from the above replies that the Saiun isn't comparable to the T2 LB Recon. Each does its own unique thing.

In Sortie mode, only the T2 LB Recons have bonus effects/multipliers, carrier-based recons such as the Saiun does not. In Air Defense mode, both the LB Recons and carrier-based ones have a multiplier to the air power. Saiun is slightly more effective at this.

Also, where did you find that Saiun enables high-altitude interception? There is nothing that "enables" it. When enemy high-altitude bombers are involved, your air power just gets cut down if you don't have the sufficient number of high-altitude interceptors in your land bases, or increased if you do.

Short conclusion: T2 LB Recon in Sortie mode, Saiun (or other carrier-based recon) in Air Defense mode, and Saiun has nothing to do with high-altitude interception in particular.
