Veteran Aircraft
whats the bonus to having a veteran bomber?

the only logical one i can see is that it has an extra HP if a fighter tries to intercept it, but is that the only benefit?

AFAIK, that's the only benefit.

An extra HP to a bomber is not much help against a JET fighter. I rarely bother to build bombers at an airport. OTOH, since fighters may tangle with other fighters, I usually build them at airports exclusively.

With Stealth Fighters/Bombers, their having Hit Points seems to be quite pointless.
