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 its anti-air 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 anti-air 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.
