43 fighter sorties and not a single bomb hit, that's pretty bad. The shell hits won't do anything and the Japanese won't worry about the couple of destroyed support squads. Did the Warhawks even carry bombs?

That was my fault CT. I didn't realize that I had left the aircraft set to use drop tanks. They carry either drop tanks or bombs, not both.

I thought I would post this here now. We are a little over 6 months into the war and
you can see that there is really no possibility of an auto victory in 1943.

You can see that his aircraft losses to flak and ops are much higher than mine.
Most of my losses on field are from day 1. Many of the air-to-air losses are from
P-40s in the PI, Buffalos over Singapore and lots of Dutch.
