2 - Will military hardware such as ground fighters/bombers and stuff like artillery be able to target a hidden base inside caves? Or does one have to march a ground army into the base sector to be able to trigger combat?

| 1 - Is there anyway to find out a hidden base complex spread, without engaging in combat? An operative should be able to report on that, (s)he's after all a former veteran. |
Most Hidden Bases are Packed (to reduce their sensor profile) But in answer to your question, yes - a Special Action can determine the base spread.

Yes, planetary range weapons can target bases hidden by Caves - the caves protect the base better than domes would however.

| 3 - Does shutting down command centres to point where base efficiency drops bellow 100% affect in any way the defence of the base from ground assault or the abbility to defend from space bombardment? |
Only as much as base efficiency is relevant for those particular activities. As a side note, shutting down Comand Complexes and Security complexes are Extreme Security missions, not your typical Close Complex order difficulty...
