Is this bomber squadron on an air base in your own territory, or patrolling from one of your own bases? If so, it should "heal," or more accurately, it should receive replacement personnel and equipment at the rate of 15% of then-current damage every day at the time of the daily update.

As an example:

A damaged unit's condition is 50%. Fifteen percent of 50% is 7.5%. Therefore a 50% damaged unit's condition should improve by 7.5%. Simple formula. As the unit's condition improves, it is less damaged, and therefore the amount of "healing" will decrease each day.

Of course, the condition of damaged ground units does not improve unless they are present within your own territory at the time of the daily update. Aircraft units must be within your own territory, or patrolling from one of your air bases. Aircraft carriers, and allied territory and bases do not count. Also, the condition of ground and air units that are at sea as part of a convoy will not improve.

Naval units' condition will improve wherever they are located.

As M outlined above, the way the formula works is subject to diminishing returns, and a unit at 94% or so will rarely receive any replenishment.

It's stationed at a base in captured territory.

Captured territory = your territory.

If the unit's condition does not improve at the next daily update, submit a bug report and let Vorlon check it out for you.

Cheers.

Thanks much. By the way, the bomber is healthier today.
