Thank you sir! Figured as much, just couldn’t find it definitively stated anywhere.

I think the 1 defense on the bombers represents the machine gun cockpits on the bombers themselves. Not fighter protection.
A&A is not base awhole lot on combat realism.
A attacking bomber on a defending fighter, they both have an hit value of 4.
I have a hard time picturing this in real life, but thats not a big concern because its just a game.
