On the points, Frame One was a Pyrrhic victory for the Axis, very close to being a draw.  All six targets were bombed effectively by the Allies.  One target, the large airbase F35, was completely obliterated by the squad "G3-MF."  "Friendly fire" aerial kills of USAAF bombers were a minor problem.  There was one Axis plane shot down by Axis fighters.

Frame Two was an Axis tactical victory.  During Frame Two, more ground target points were in play, with two large airbases included in the target mix.  Navigation and target identification was a problem for the Allies, with bombs falling on civilian targets. Nonetheless, all six ground targets were hit.  The "Gun Fighters" squad hit large airbase F49 very hard.  Several USAAF bombers accidentally fell victim to Allied fire, while two Axis fighters were lost to "friendly fire."

With less damage to ground targets and more USAAF bombers shot down, Frame Three was a major Axis victory.  In Frame Three, USAAF navigation seemed to go awry, with unlisted targets being hit and one target, Vehicle Base V82 in map sector 11-08-03, going completely unscathed.  Despite those problems, the squad "LCA" did very well, leveling vehicle base V70.  The squad "G3-MF" also turned in another good performance bombing medium airbase F50.  Accidental downings of USAAF bombers reached a peak, with ten aircraft shot down.  The Axis lost one ME-262 jet to "friendly fire."
