S3 Series

Plow away - sorry for late start but real life is busy!

You will have lots of singles and small groups of US shipping moving out of Manila Bay and Subic Bay to Corregidor and Australia. They are excellent points. The US managed to strafe down at least 6 last frame but they do have those mighty 50cals. Also static ships at Subic Bay are an easy target for any bombers that shows up late or dont know the plan.

You have the US under radar coverage from all their fields except F41 in the far south. With the long loiter time of the zeros I think you can rush to CAP and stay there for a long time. High Betties do much better than low Kates but sometimes you dont have the option against moving ships. Another point rich target is the supply depot at F78; trucks, fuel and ammo there.

RL is a bear around the holidays for sure.

The Betty can carry 1 Torp if you feel attacking moving ships are worth it unless the bombers they can hit moving ships.
The Depot at 78 looks good buy trucks, fuel should be killable by Heavy Zeke's or Heavy Oscars (only their bombs since they have no cannon.)
I think the Betty would be good hitting the static shipping at Subic Bay using a couple bombs there then following the moving ships.

Agree as long as they are escorted. If not we'll loose them and lots of points.
