This flag defines the additional range added to all of TechnoType's weapons when it is targeting objects in air. In order to do this, the weapon's projectile must have AA=yes set.
Notes
When a unit gets ordered to attack an airborne target, it will strive to move into the Range value of the AA weapon, and stay there while attacking. Adding AirRangeBonus doesn't affect this behavior, but as it increases the weapon's effective firing range, it actually makes slow moving AA units more effective against targets that are able to escape from them (especially if they have OpportunityFire=yes), since they will automatically move in to cover a larger area.
