On the way out, RO-68 puts two torpedoes into the West Virginia. However, the task force can't have slowed down enough as I don't spot it or engage with air.
South of Truk, there is a row of subs just out of range of the Helens on ASW. I send three ASW task forces along this line and they manage to score hits on two subs.
Burma
I bomb some troops in the jungle, not much effect.
China
Liberators launch a night attack at Lanchow. 1 Tojo lost, 1 Liberator lost, no hits scored.
Wellingtons launch a night attack at Kunming. No night CAP and only 1 AA unit. They score 1 HI hit and knock out 4 points of HI.
Last turn I launched this attack that didn't work out:

He obviously thought I would be in a bad way so launched this that didn't work out for him either:

So do I turn around and attack him back? It would be a lovely hex to take.
Latest bombardment at Chungking reports:

Guns lost 8 (3 destroyed, 5 disabled)
I may try another attack.
Australia
No attack today. Airfield has just 27 service damage - do I transfer some fighters in and run whatever I can in supplies forward now?
Engineering
Prome airfield to 5.
Allies expand Portland Roads port to 1.
R&D
Ki-43-IIc advances to 11/43 and immediately enters production. Two R&D factories will produce this and be increased and an obsolete A6M2 factory will be converted for a total production rate of 140.
Ki-61-1a and J1N1-C are now available but neither will be produced.
Pilots
I have this in my operations report "Accelerated training for 96 IJ Navy pilots from month-cycle 9". Something useful from the pilots in TRACOM.
Also, "Pilot Yamaguchi, M. is reported as to have escaped capture", good for him!
