That plane flew closer than a range of 80.
Noted in a game on Waters of Isis, that they struggled to kill gunships skirting the edge of the map into my base, and gunships attacking my battleships. It's the only carrier that seems to actually not benefited from the range buff, which increased its AA weapon range to 100. Normally, carriers (of other factions) provide great air area denial. I could not rely them to stop T3 bombers incoming to a Scathis, positioned a good deal in front of it.
Here's a sandbox showing how it struggles at range. Look closely, and you see the shots clearly being aimed too high. The moment the plane moves within about 80, it seems to be able to hit it. Experimental aircraft seem to be an exception though.
