If special forces occupy the airbase where enemy aircraft are based and the enemy aircraft need to land, will they? If so, will their damage be dealt as if from the air or from the ground?

1. Yes
2. Ground damage. So it’s an easy win for Secs Ops -
Thanks!

well assuming they dont have another airbase to ferry to."And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him "

In this application, special forces have two options due to this. One is a direct air assault against enemy fighters on the ground. Regardless, the fighters are incapable of successful interception and are only able to retaliate on the attack itself and in the following actions, which will also present the only time of vulnerability for the special forces. The final reason for this being an effective option is the spec ops stealth. Not only are they strong enough to eliminate the grounded aircraft rapidly, but even if the enemy was in flight and managed to get to a position to intercept them, special forces are a stealthy unit, even in aerial transit, enabling them to avoid interception while flying to assault.
The other option, often considerably riskier due to the length of operation in enemy territory, is enabled by the special forces high ground speed, air assault capability, and stealth. This is for the special forces to insert at a drop zone, either by air or ground, enabled by their stealth and movement capabilities, and then make a patrol into the target airbase and either lay in wait for or attack already grounded enemy aircraft. This is made risky by both the length of the insertion and primarily the resulting increase in the possible risk of encountering enemy forces in route and having a meeting engagement with a potentially superior force. -

If you stack them with armored vehicles and regular troops. Does the whole stack ignore entrenchment protection on an attack on a city? Or just the special forces unit?

Unfortunate, I know.

You can even straight walking into people territory without open war and spy their Homeland the whole game :v (assuming they don't have recon car or drone)
Problem is it will automatically engaged any units it's walk into and declare war. Required a heavy micro management.This post was made by Leader of the Church of ROAD -
I’ve done that before, and it is a harrowing journey the whole way.

And well augmented with UAV support mid-war, provided you have air superiority.
