In the second mission, the planes that you are escorting do not fly directly back and forth between their southern airports and the surrounded ones. Instead they zip off to the side and touch the Russian airbases, not stopping at all, before flying onto their destination. This causes them to run into ambushes from enemies who have just arrived at their airbases, rather than the ones who have flown out and laid in wait in the center.
I'm not sure whether or not this is intended.

Happened to me as well - the paths taken by the planes overall seem ok, but they do have a tendency to strafe towards the sides to Soviet airfields and this does gets them into trouble.

Operation Cerberus:
It is impossible to achieve the bonus "destroy the home fleet", because the BB with strengh 30 is always in AA-mode and no of my BB's fight against the british BB's.
This results in a combat BB against my planes, which I'm losing in one shot .
I can only save my fighters, bombers etc. if I rebase them out of range from this BB, I think it was the KIng George V.
From my 30 Fw190 which I used for Galland and Baer, I have Galland down to 3 and Baer to 1 strengh to the mid of this scenario.

I achieved the bonus wasting all my ju88 and 9000 prestige points, but firstly because in late scenario Scharnost and Gneiseinau started to shot at enemy BB

In Kummersdorf training if you try to train units with over 4000 XP after first attack XP counter is reset to 4000 and in next turns you do not gain xp for this unit.
So beware of using over 4 stars units in this mission - you will lose XP and not gain it.

For me on hardest difficulty Overstrenght long range bombers with double attack works great. York goes down in 2 rounds.
If you have consolidator it gets even better

There is no "AA mode" for ships, so when you mentioned that the only possibility I could think of is R2G2's mod that allows ships switching to AA mode to allow them actively shoot aircrafts. There is no way vanilla game ships being able to attack your aircrafts except when under attack.

Rudel in his Il-2 Sturmovik handled that for me

. Strat bombers with " No retaliation" heros work great aswell.

On second kharkov the destroy both soviet tank armies bonus objective doesn't give a commendation point. Tried it with various units, on various turns, with various units getting the kill. The pop up appears saying I have gotten it done but it doesn't appear in the counter on top of the screen.

definitly they hunt activly my planes if they are in combat range. The King George shoot Rudel down in one round and he was in Calais on the airport.
The BB drives actively to the airport and shoot Rudel down.
And others planes too.
That was may expirience in this scenario.

The Commendation Point counter broke in Kummersdorf training mission. Despite it the game tracking points correctly, it's stuck at 10 for me. I'll update once I'll earn some CP in the next scenario, hopefully.
EDIT - Fixed in next scenario, it's now displaying properly.
