This Tokyo bug isn't just about navelbombardment, on an air attack with only Flying Fortress and Libarator, I still lost some Hurricans and Beaufort V-XI in the attack... ???

Could someone please tell me if it's a known bug...

I'm playing scenario 15 "War in the Pacific". Not that I with the random start did much better... I lost 2 BB's in Pearl Harbor. :-(

But never mind. The firste attack, the navelbombardment toke place on the 13/8-42 and were purely US surface ships attacking Tokyo. All british Hurricans were stationed in either Singapore, Saigon or Camranh Bay. All british Hurricans are on 90% CAP due to lack of suitable targets within thier limited reach. The only attack wich included Hurricans on this day were a Japanese attack:
***********************************
Day Air attack on Camranh Bay , at 34,46
Japanese aircraft
Ki-43-Ib Oscar x 9
Ki-21 Sally x 27
Ki-46-II Dinah x 1
Allied aircraft
Mohawk IV x 13
Hurricane II x 11
Japanese aircraft losses
Ki-43-Ib Oscar: 20 destroyed
Ki-21 Sally: 10 destroyed, 20 damaged
Runway hits 2
************************************

The massive airattack by Flying fortress and Libarator toke place on 18/9-42. The planes toke off from Iwo Jima. After stratigic bombing Japan for some time the losses of planes grew. So I launced a massive airattack against the airfield of Tokyo. On this day the were 2 events that included Hurricans:
**********************************
Day Air attack on Palembang , at 20,55
Japanese aircraft
Ki-27 Nate x 2
Allied aircraft
Hurricane II x 9
Vengeance I x 6
P-40E Warhawk x 10
Japanese aircraft losses
Ki-27 Nate: 5 destroyed
Allied aircraft losses
Vengeance I: 2 destroyed, 4 damaged
Airbase supply hits 1
Runway hits 1
*****************************************************
Day Air attack on TF at 33,47
Allied aircraft
Mohawk IV x 4
Hurricane II x 4
Beaufort V-IX x 6
Allied aircraft losses
Beaufort V-IX: 1 damaged
Japanese Ships
PC Ch 8, Shell hits 4
MSW Wa 2, Shell hits 4, Bomb hits 1, on fire, heavy damage
Aircraft Attacking:
3 x Beaufort V-IX attacking at 100 feet
3 x Beaufort V-IX attacking at 100 feet
****************************************************

I hope thats this helps you a bit... I have both savegames, the reports ziped

Hey.

I actually found why I'm lossing planes in navelbombardment or airfield attacks of Tokyo in scenario 15. Look whats placed in Tokyo.

Either they are captured planes and need to be destroyed or there is a bug with the allied reinforcement of planes in scenario 15. Both Hurricans II and Beauforts V-IX are by acident beeing placed in Tokyo and therefore subjected to attack and destruction. The planes I've lost on the ground in Tokyo due to airfield attacks or navelbombardment counted in the overall scoreboard of lost/killed planes.
