never seen this before. Attack on USS Lexington. 4 of 9 bombs hit the belt armor. Anyone see this before?

I believe that the hit routine doesn't know the difference between bombs, shells, etc.  So unless you skip bomb this would be a mistake by the program itself.  Again it's a game and not perfect, but fun.

Yes. Hit location is determined and considered in game. Belt armor hits not common.

Lexington,  being originally laid down as a battlecruiser, is one of only two USN carriers that actually had decent belt armour (the other is the Saratoga, her half-sister)

Same can be said for Kaga and Akagi.

And don't 4get the Shinano, which had over 30 inches of belt armour.  Didn't save it from the US sub though...
