Hacksaws are what you build if you don't want Ravens to kill a building, by the way.

You'll probably need quite a few of them, placed so they have time to hit the ravens as they come in. They do enough burst damage to kill one raven each, so build appropriately. Obviously this isn't a sustainable long term defense, and there's ways around it (perhaps even literally -around- it, they are very short range) but they're also significantly cheaper than a raven and do a pretty good job on anything else that comes close enough too.

A little later on, you can build a few chainsaws and they tend to ensure that any planes that get close enough at the very least will take losses - but planes are supposed to be able to go into your base and kill things, that's their intended role.

Your air defenses influence a) how many planes it will take, and b) how many planes will come back.

Razors
are
lovely,
but
I
view
them
mostly
as
either
tough
AA,
or
anti-gunship
AA,
since
they
just
don't
do
damage
fast
enough
against
planes.
Threshers
are
a
great
multi-purpose
AA,
which
you
have
to
pay
appropriately
for
-
they're
the
Stinger
of
AA
turrets.

Faraday are also AA. Howso? Planes stop when they get stunned. -Everything- can hit a stopped plane, including a stardust.
