Base 1: 4 fighters

Base 2: 1 fighter, 3 bombers

Base 3: 1 fighter, 3 bombers

For base 2 and 3, put the fighter at  top slot, cuz somehow air raids always seem to damage this slot first. For the bombers, optimally put your land based bombers towards base 3 as they are more powerful, and base 3 would encounter the least AA since you will be killing enemy planes starting from base 1. Ofc, the higher your plane levels, the better.

With this set up, in addition to AACI, I can fully destroy the boss node planes on easy. Switching out some base 1 fighters with bombers might be viable, i have never tried it. Also, given that I can wipe most of the planes, I am also able to put a lot of bombers on my fleet carriers as well. These bombers can also contribute to the damage output significantly.

Note that I was doing easy, but I think this would work the best on higher difficulties as well.

Oh, and pray that you do not get the AA formation.
