Squad Assignments
Luftflotte 6 - A6M2 - CAP for Kaga Fleet
4th FG - A6M2
23rd FG - A6M2
RCAF - Strike
8th FG - Strike
Lf6 - will launch at T+0 in A6M2 for Kaga CAP. By rules, you cannot be further than 60 miles from Fleet until the ENEMY CARRIER group is located. Will coordinate positioning during frame. When CV is found, I will ask for 3 volunteers to stay with the Kaga group while the others move to enemy CV location.
4th and 23rd - Roll when ENEMY CARRIER group found. Escort the RCAF and 8th.
RCAF and 8th - Strike planes. Your choice, just make sure you fly the same plane throughout frame. A mix of Kates and Vals at your discretion. 4th FG and 23rd will be close escort and Lf6 will vector to target immediately upon discovery.
Scouting - It is imperative we find the USN before they find us. We have one setup advantage with our land base proximity to the USN start box VS. the US land base's proximity to our start box.
One volunteer from Lf6, 4th, 23rd and RCAF/8th as scouts will be assigned one of 4 scout search headings.
Scout 1 - 100* searching the northern sector of the US Start Box.
Scout 2 - 115* searching the middle north sector of the US Start Box
Scout 3 - 130* searching the middle south sector of the US Start Box
Scout 4 - 075* from F18 - searching the middle of the US Start Box
