This flag defines the additional range added to a TechnoType's Primary weapon when it is targeting airborne units (doesn't matter if AircraftTypes, VehicleTypes or InfantryTypes). In order to do this, the weapon's projectile must have AA=yes set.
This flag only applies to the Primary weapon. It should be set less than or equal to the normal range of the weapon, otherwise targeting issues arise, and the unit will be unable to target anything.
Notes
When unit gets ordered to attack an airborne target, it will strive to move into the Range value, and stay there while attacking. Since adding AirRangeBonus increases the actual weapon's firing range, but doesn't affect this behavior, in some situations it helps slow moving AA units when attacking targets that will try to escape (especially if they have OpportunityFire=no).
