Not sure what the point of this guy is when Arnold exists. No unique skill, 5 star, explosive??? At least Dowding can have an econ build.

I agree, the Design choice of fighting Spirit of a Air General seems very Strange. Most of the the he is out of range of Battlefield. Dont even know if its worth for the hind. It has a chance do dodge attacks if attacked by the enemy, does that trigger counterattacks?

He is worse than Arnold and Dowding. He has only one Air skill and the free spot must be Carpet Bombing. While
+ Arnold costs 1485 medals and has 2 necessary air skills, 1 defense/ support skill "Rumour" and has 6 air stars. his free skill can be economic skills.
+ Dowding costs 1341 medals and has 1 necessary air skill, but he has Economic skill, his free skill can be industry or tech or CP.

Arnold also has M General rank, full 6 stars in air and full mobility stars. Fighting spirit could help if on Hind but you could always add on to Arnold if you so choose. I bring another viable option.... 
I could easily substitute economy with carpet bombing, or any skill that works also with Hind |

Imo he is a paratrooper general which would be force inserted into an enemy frontline city, hold it while sweeping enemy units attempting a recapture or moving around unprotected within his air-raid range, then repeat the process after reinforcement arrived to takeover, cracking garrisoned cities is not his job so the free slot should not have Carpet Bombing but Organization, Cover or Rumor.
Still, I would never give him more than 2 even if he got another free slot or lost explosives over a more useful skill.

I think, guys, you are too harsh to this chap. First of all, only lvl 9 Helicopter can dodge damage with almost a certainty (but not against Comandos and Air strikes). If my memory is correct, lvl 1 Mi-24 has only 40% probability. Then, in the description of the Fighting spirit it is not said that a general should be damaged by attack. So, I make a conclusion that a successful counterattack heals him even if the damage is dodged.
Surely, there are more generals better suited for commanding Mi-24. But f2p players have rather limited options. Chennault and Dowding are usually built as generals with economic skills. So, they shouldn't leave cities. Then we need two generals for commanding Akagi and Enterprise, and now 2 more to command Typhoon and Mi-24 (and in some missions and conquests we will have more than one unit of these types).

The problem is unless he get to ride the Hind, he in full air gen build would be worse than Nimitz, who at full discount only cost 271 more but starts out as M Gen with roughly similar performance, and can act as auxiliary navy/carrier gen. Kesselring is way expensive than him but imo the trade off in having very meh ground action ability makes Doolittle inferior as an aggressive auxiliary air gen. |

Yamamoto is strictly better than Doolittle, and Halsey is more suitable as carrier general. |
