I think he is more after if his nuke bomber would be shot down. AA are VERY effective against bombers.

yea you will need at least 7 AA (Lv1) to defeat a nuke bomber (level3)

all at 100% moral

Usually you will have some other units in your stacks that add to the AA value, for instance, infantry (1,5AA), antitanks(1AA), artillery(1AA) and so on. Having some interceptors on patrol can be a great deterrent as well.

Nuke bombers can still be used against your huge pile of AA if the enemy targets a province center that your stack has been moving away from, say ~10 minutes ago. Target the province center and the nuke won't be shot down and the stack will die in the following blast.

But it takes a skilled player :)
