Yeah, that's likely to happen because the airstrike lethality is probably on the nasty side, since no combat simulation developer in the history of the world has ever got combat lethality anywhere near realistic levels. Every sim ever made has given the player a combat situation that's basically suicidal. If real life combat was anywhere near what simulations are like there would be no combat veterans - they would all be dead within an hour of going into enemy territory. IL-2 is the worst offender by far, with its pilot life expectancy measured in hours, rather than the months that real pilots survived.
