There's no relation between whether or not the air unit was used during the previous enemy turn and its ability to interdict. This can make the interdiction results quite random as well in situations where the enemy side has a mixture of low SA value fighter bombers and tactical/medium bombers.

To complicate things, air availability refers to two separate things in the game:

-A percentage chance to determine when an air unit will be available again after using it for an air mission. This percentage can be found in the "Miscellaneous" section of the parameter data dialogue.

-Air availability in the Units menu that shows any changes in the units that are available for air missions during the scenario. I'm not sure if units that are not available for missions according to the air availability dialogue in the Units menu can fly interdiction missions. They are not withdrawn, they're just not available, and they recover fatigue/replacements normally.

I thought that the interdiction was based solely on the Air Interdiction value in the PDT file.
