Close Air support question

[Valtyr]

Does the mission have to be in the area the enemy is or the divisions you have area? And do they attack without your divisions being involved?

I think Close Air Support mission only works when land units are fighting:

Close air support, also known as ground support, is the use of aircraft to assist troops in land combat. Wings with this mission will participate in land combat throughout the strategic region. This gives an attack bonus to friendly troops and directly damages organization and strength of enemy divisions.

The mission needs to be in the same area as where the battle is fought.

This can be a bit of a hassle if you are fighting on the border of two air zones. If you are attacking into the next air zone then the cas needs to be there but if you are attacked instead then the cas needs to be back where you are.

Just remember, the battles are fought in the province where the defender is, so plan accordingly.
