Need some advice:  I put my second air fleet as all fighters/land based interceptors and set them to AA defense for the base (in E5). After 15 sorties, I decided to switch that around for ten sorties and actually sortie them rather than use them as defense. Obviously, I'm new at this mechanic, and I've only had about 35 runs total testing, but I'm noticing no significant difference between having a squadron on base AA defense, or having none. Either I get hit for inconsequential damage, then hit for considerable damage, or vice versa. It never seems to actually 'protect' my base, e.g. having my squadrons not bombed to oblivion. Any advice on what I'm doing wrong?
