The frigs have less air vision than ground vision?

Description

Whats up with that? :)

(Brimstone without AirLOS so the missile misses every shot unless pinpointers)

Edit: Flamer ship also, not Lightning ship however. Great discrepancy here as both these ships have AA weapon.

Expected Behaviour

Equal airlos or normal (1.5x LOS). Balance issue?

Actual Behaviour

Less AirLOS than LOS.

Reproduction steps

No response

In-game the AirLOS is omitted in details probably because its less than LOS.

Checked and this is the current situation:

following ships seem to list less airlos than los at lua files:

• corfship: los 500, airlos 470 (Brimstone/Anti-Swarm Ship aka Flamer ship)
• leghastatus: los 500 airlos 470 (Hastatus/Assault Frigate)
• leghastatusalt: los 500 airlos 470 (alternative Hastatus/Assault Frigate ?)
• (scavengers) armpshipt3: los 600 airlos 470 (epic ellysaw)

For what I can see these look like the only game units with less airlos than los (I might have overlooked something). Units declaring airlos usually set anywhere between 1x to 4x.

The frigates (armpship/Ellysaw and corpship/Riptide) don't seem to have that problem, they list no specific airlos at lua files but ingame they show 1.5x los. They also have no aa afaics.

Engine indeed seems to set airlos = 1.5*los when airlos is not defined at unitdefs.

To fix this I think we would need some decision from the balance team to see if current situation is wanted, if we should just remove the airlos to let engine set 1.5x, or if we want some specific values.

The frigs been silently fixed it seems.
