Hi, A TF commander with airgroups set to 100 percent ASW has no bombers to react with even if he wanted to. (or was allowed)
A CV commander who launched all his bombers on a port attack (or airfield/ground) has no bombers to react with if enemy CV 'pop' up.

The safest method is to set prime mission to Naval attack with the port/airfield as secondary. Then if CV 'pop' up they launch other attacks if enemy TF is found it gets attacked. But if you assign 100 percent of your bombers to non Naval strike missions you have no on deck aircraft to launch. You make this call when you assign missions.

In WITP you can split onboard airgroups. (they divide into 3 equal parts)
So you can set 1 of these groups to ASW and still retain Naval Attack groups.
It would be nice if this feature (among others) gets back fitted to UV
