Status: offline 		Long planned raid on Karachi does not go as planned. Bad weather cancels strike and thos that do fly focus on the BB Valiant rather than the 200 ships in port. Surface TFs failed to clear the Allied surface TFs and the bombardment Tf was turned back by air strikes after the KB failed to cover it.

Yenan was captured leaving just Chungking in China

2 Brit CVs and a CVL are sunk. Allied strikes broke through the KB's CAP but did not score any hits. It may be hazardous to stick around much longer
