Obviously shock damage is a big oof for ground support fighters, especially the 60-80 ton ones you mentioned in your post. But I think the main reason why AA seems so powerful is primarily because of numbers. Because of how micro intensive it is to have even 60 CAS fighters, you won't have people building and using 100s of them, but the NPRs and spoilers you fight will have 1000s of AA units, which now only need focus their firepower on a few dozen fighters. If the micro problem is solve we'll start seeing people using multiple hundreds of these fighters which I think will dampen much of the problems we have right now with CAS balance.
