ORIGINAL: Lowpe I watched several engagements with the Irving S too, and my fighters dived on the enemy bombers and then attacked from below when they actually started firing. Now, the enemy bombers I attacked where around 8-10K. Despite your having 80 percent on cap only 3 were airborne, and 7 more scrambled. Good looking morale and fatigue, nice leader, fatigue low. I have noticed the Irving S runs out of ammo really quickly, and doesn't do well against 4Es, the only thing I can suggest is using better experienced pilots. I am using Tracom exclusively, and have only lost pilots to enemy daytime bombing runs, not a single one lost defending an airbase in A2A. Or lower the percentage CAP, and fly them higher, around 15, 20K. That way they won't close and die, but still be present to disrupt the night bombing attack a little. I hope you have a lot of 20mm FLAK there! I don't think Judy will do much for your with 2 rifle caliber machine guns. Perhaps/probably not. However, it might be a decent night escort, if that's even possible .
