question about AA on in game ships

[WarBeast44]

can someone post a picture of what the HUD looks like when they are active??

[ZombieFlanders]

the HUD wont change, youll just hear them start firing. the only HUD element i can think of associated with AA is when you select a target to focus fire on.

Or when you hit P and turn them off.

Yes unless you hit P and turn them off in which case your HUD will look like this

Also, be sure to check the "animate small objects" box in the graphics settings.

Yes, AA is automatic and will fire when planes come in range. Using the CTRL key you can place your cursor on a particular air group (say fighters and torp bombers are in range, you want to concentrate on the torps since fighters can't hurt you) to concentrate your fire on them, but it is still automatic.
