In 4.11.1 I got shot at all the way in to the target.
I changed to a USAAF fighter campaign on the same map and found that the American AAA Worked.
The Japanese AAA works fine in FMB.
Finally I am not alone!
I have done some more tests on PTO maps and other fronts and I have found at least two types of missions where AAAs don't work: scramble and ground attack(straffing or level bombing). I'll continue my tests to see what other types of missions don't have working AAAs in Dgen.

By the way robday, does this problem appears in other campaigns? Could you try the german JABO campaign( if you can see AAAs symbols close to your position on your map, I'd advise you to go there to see if they work) or an USMC one where you fly on Chichi Jima map (I think that the issue appears when you're assigned to a ground attack mission or sometimes to an escort mission) to see if AAA is working or not and could you report it here please. Thanks

Just take your time, I'll just wait until you post your report. Im' going back to IL-2 to do more tests.

P.S: Have you already tried to put some custom skins and reactivate ID markings on static planes in Dgen? It doesn't work for me.
