Enjoying the videos didn't know about the color of the search fan meaning which side of the search fan is searched first. I figured X numbers of planes fly out in their designated fan at the same time. Learn something new all the time playing this game and listening to others as they play.

Not much. Port Blair falls to paratroopers. Some ships sunk by KB and Netties near there - ships fleeing the DEI, and got caught.

I don't remember where they start, but I think it's around Indochina or southern China or Taiwan. By using air transport from their starting point, you can get them to Bangkok and from Bangkok or Chumphon (in Malaysia) you can paradrop them on Port Blair. I've done it really early like this as well.
