Status: offline 		Range could be an issue for Kates armed with torps. They can only do "normal" range, not "extended" with that kind of load. Sometimes weather is an issue for being able to launch torp-armed aircraft too. Vals are much lighter with a smaller weapon load so they can launch in almost any weather (shorter take-off run, less issues with a heaving deck).

Status: offline 		1. Detection of the target (via Air search or Float planes, or sub spotting or surface contact)
2. Size of the target (no purpose sending 150 planes against couple of transport)
3. Target priority or threat (CV, CVE, BB, CA, CL, DD, other stuff)
4. Weather (bad weather can affect strike size as well as parcel it out, not to mention it effects DL too)
5. Leader rolls (CV TF leader, Air group leaders - failed roll here could mean 25% of the strike/group strength)
6. Expected opposition (heavy CAP can force strike to seek other targets or not fly at all)

You can effectively affect points No. 1 and 5. Other depends on your opponent or game rolls :)

Status: offline 		All groups should be set to the same altitude (and 5000 is IIRC Low Naval already), for best coordination chance.

But it seems to me, that target TF had too few ships for CVs to send more planes.

But it seems to me, that target TF had too few ships for CVs to send more planes.

The threshold for low naval was changed from" below 6000 feet" to "below 2000 feet" years ago, at the same time glide bombing was eliminated from the game's algorithm. I think the change was to put Low Naval in range of IJN light AA, because it lacked much medium AA to engage at 6000 feet.

The problem should be solved with more/better search.
