Do you have Ki-94? That will be much more useful if you can get it. The stats are as good as most Allied fighters at that time and it's 'only' service 3 compared to 5 for the jets.


My R&D plan was to work only on `45 planes max.
So i don`t R&D Ki-94 and also after B6N1 upgrade to N2 i end Nakajima Ha-44 production.

SR5 can be PITA. I will stay with conventional planes. I rather have in air 100 Franks, Shindens, Sams and Ki-83s than 100 Ki-201 stuck on ground.

@obvert
I think it is to late to go fro Ki-94. It is best Japanese Army conventional fighter but not much better from Ki-83. I invest to much in Ki-83 so i rather save that supply to give my boys something to eat. Ki-83 is 2x more expensive from Ki-94 but i think i will have biiger problems with supples that with HI in that stage of war.

EDIT: Still no turn. Probably not until tomorrow. I think next day are going to be hard for Docup.
If i remember correctly Japan so far sunk 12 Allied CV and 4 CVL. It is something like ~35% of CV/CVL carrier force Allies have during war.

After checking numbers i decide to not build Musashi. 358 day to complete at normal speed, so 250000 HI. I don`t even try to think about acceleration - 180 days and 750000 HI

I still would not do it. It's not the HI but the fuel use once it's in there, as compared to it's worth. maybe you can get something out of it, but these behemoths seem too costly in use and not effective enough to justify it, but also once damaged take another year to be repaired. So you might pay at this point 250,000 HI for one or two battles with that ship.

I'd rather have Shinano at this point in the war.

Not worth of trying. Even accelerated i will take 538 days to build Shinano and 1076 at normal speed.

- Fighters max on second best altitude band (Offensive and defensive missions)
- 4E bombers 10k of higher
- Navy 4E can go below 10k if on naval attack mission to simulate skip bombing

Erik and I did away with our HR and set a max alt of all planes to 32k. I think the airwar became a lot better after that. Less extreme. But Erik might have a different view on it though!

But at moment we are right now for at lest short time i want weapon that can do starto sweeps. Maye in 6 or 9 months from now we will change that.

I agree with HR You have. 2nd band rule make air combat very often one sided. You have altitude You win. Specially in missions like LCAP or in places when You dont have radar to be able to climb above sweep.

With rule You have things like plane speed, climb rate and maneuverability have some bigger impact. Also pilot quality is more important.



Now little of topic
I ask Docup a question:
"Wonder how long USA government would wait to tell public opinion about that battle if it happen during real war? What they would tell and what will be keep in secret?" Waiting for answers

Get the Nick Id as it can be used to 'upgrade' FB to NF just when you'll start to need them. Starting early on the Randy Ic is a good idea too. For IJN sadly the Irving Sa with radar is about the best, and it's not so great. Denko is just too late.


I have question what FB units can upgrade to Nick Id. I currently have couple FB units and none of them can upgrade to Nick Id. I check it manually.
Maybe those are FB units that will arrive in `44.

Currently i have only 2 fighter, 2 reckon and one LB unit that can upgrade to Nick Id.
Maybe if i upgrade some of bomber groups to FB, Nick Id path will open?



24 December 1943

Ambon
Navy refueled. I have luck today. AO TF sailing toward Soerobaja was attacked by strafing bombers. Lucky only 0.50cal hits, no bombs.

Sinking sound at night phase.
Game and Tracker are showing 5th carriers sunk in last battle
CV Interpid (FoW?) sunk 12/24/43 location 77,123 near Bathurst Island, Scuttled

If anything sunk it must be CV Bunker Hill (Bomb hits 3, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage) only one damage enough to be in sinking condition or maybe one more CVL goes down but those that survive take light damage.

I finally manage ti find time to do turn.
As bonus to last report about probable sinking of another CV/CVL i give that picture.
We all know what that usually mean

Allies sweep Taung Gyi.
Japan lost 82 planes (28 pilots) for 31 enemy planes(P-47, P-38, F4U and Spit VIII). No bombers. Two groups send to Rangoon to rest(should back to combat in 3 days) and where replaced with fresh units. Tomorrow 200 fighters will wait for another wave.

With proper rotation i should be able to hold for few days. I have 650 fighters in Burma.
As long as i keep below 3:1 against his best planes it is good.

Result should be better but Docup was using LCAP with at lest 25 maybe 50 P-47.
Somewhere deep i have mixed feeling with use LCAP as offensive weapon.

There is solution. Don`t sweep at all.

And seriously. I will not fight for another HR or something. I just don`t like it.
Plus I have no base on map that have CAP bigger that 200 planes (except Rabaul 400)

Not true. You did it quite effectively with P-47s for a year before you used LR CAP again at Luzon. It works fine if you use your best planes and pilots only from the max altitude.

I see reinforcement plus groups will resize to 49 size so i will have soon.

As to last battle.
I have 180 planes in Taung Gyi but only something like 120 participated. I think i made mistake setting high 60% CAP plus because deficit of Air support i have many plans siting in AF waiting to refuel. Tomorrow i will try 40 or 50% CAP. I should have lees planes in air for first wave but later more planes will scramble.

Also i again notice strange radar behavior JocMeister reported. For every sweep radar detect enemy raid but time to target was always between 2-8 minutes. No time to get above sweep not telling about scramble planes.

Burma
Quiet. No sweeps today

DEI
Allied subs sunk AK, and damage another one. Escort manage to sunk sub.
They also hit two 8k tons AOs. One will sunk tomorrow. Second have some chances. I have 50k of fuel sailing to Ambon i delaying it by two days to add some heavy ASW escort.

Naval search
I lost in last two days ~20 G3M3 and G4M1 flying naval search all over map. I need to adjust my search arcs to avoid bases with heavy CAP

Docup have some TFs in Babar. Some cruisers and DDs. I want to send SAG to intercept them in night phase. I have two Kongos BB and two CA in range. Should i split it in two TFs, first with BB second with CA, or send them as single TF. What will work better. Moon is low 3%.
