Ouch, ouch and ouch. There is a real danger Erik will try and counter attack here tomorrow. Could be dicey if he does. I´m down to 1100 AV. Level 2 forts though. The 2Es will visit the stack tomorrow in case he goes for it.
I underestimated how much fight this stack had left. They have suffered 400-600 casualties per day for 3 weeks now and have been completely cut off for the same amount of time. I´m going to have to send reinforcement here if I´m to remove this stack. Ouch.

After 3 days of humiliation over Kagoshima we finally get the upper hand on the 15th. This Sweep saw the combat debut of the Corsair 4. Its a really nice plane with a 446MPH top speed. Sadly the replacement rate is dropped from 158 to 115 which sucks.  Hopefully the better plane can make up for fewer numbers.

The B29s take off for factories around the HI knocking out a completely unguarded Frank plant at Utsonomiya. The rest go for the Dinah NF plant and Sam factory at Tsu. Results are good but not stellar.
Ki-83r Frank: 148 (-30)
A7M2 Sam: 222 (-17)
J2M5 Jack 145
Ki-83: 52 (+30)
Ki-44 Tojo: 111
N1K2-J George: 72
Ki-100-I Tony: 67
Ki-102c Randy: 73
Ki-43-IV Oscar: 153
J7W1-Shinden: 3
Ki-46-III KAI 18 (-23)
A positive result obviously means I have found a factory previously not discovered.
