Actually, it turns out the best strategy is to strip the plane’s armor - light planes need less fuel, which makes them even lighter, and that makes them faster. Fast planes spend less time in enemy airspace, on top of being harder to hit.
The principles are usually about the machine itself, rather than overall war strategy, but sure, if you can do something without risking stuff and people, that’s better.
Here’s my strategic assessment: the best option is to large scale infiltrate your enemy before air raids and let the infiltrators put potatos into the air defence systems barrel’s. 🥔 gg, ez.
also… the Mossie used less critical resources which meant they could build more of them. and the plywood construction may have been harder to spot on radar.

The survivability onion: 1 don’t get seen, 2 don’t get hit, 3 don’t get damaged, 4 don’t get killed
You forgot zero: don’t be there.

I mean, you could argue that “spend less time in enemy territory” counts for this.
Or: Desert?
negative one: don’t be
That’s the tactic my goth girlfriend employees. It has its downsides.
Aw fuck I just realized I’m my wife’s goth girlfriend I feel so fetishized
