is there anyway to improve the accuracy of my artillery and aircraft, at least 75% of all sheels or bombs are "failed" no matter what the terrain

No. Unless you want to change their bombardment values in the Editor.
When bombarding cities, there is a 50% chance of defenders being targeted, 25% improvements, and 25% population. AFTER target is determined, then it is the bombardment strength vs. defense strength. Since version 1.17 (or before) city improvements and population points have a defense strength of 16 (sixteen).
Cruise Missiles attacking cities seem to target only the defender (0% improvements or population).
For both city and NON-city terrain, do not forget to take in account the defensive multiplier for the terrain (or city/metropolis). I do not know if city walls count for bombardment.

It would be interesting to have technology affect this- i.e. certain techs give x2 bombard chance in the same way that a tech (which?) gives x2 workers...
Would be a great way to reflect the addition of aircraft spotting...
Would also be great for modding.They're coming to take me away, ha ha...Comment

I disagree with phunny_pharmer's idea for multiplying bombardment strengths with technology. This has already been done with increases in bombardment strength with later bombardment units.
The 16 strength of population and improvements have been increased to provide proper balance. They were initially 4 (I believe), then increased to 8, then to their current 16.
These increases most likely were to deal with balancing with bombers and artillery, the most-used bombardiers of cities.Comment

Try attacking with lots of units protected of course with Infantry etc.A stack of 25 Artillery and ample
(you decide)number of defensive units can reduce the largest of cities to rubble I mean size1.
