understood 352. Don't expect you to get with us unless you don't run into anyone. Hope you can disrupt em as much as possible. Free Jagd. Bombs only if you could, if not, no worries

P47 North Route, at climb speed 225, used Boost 1 twice enroute and reached Angels 30.2 at T38. Used two large drop tanks, 130 gals remaining. Fuel will be an issue with the P47 sticking with the BUFFs all the way.

Fighters can depart 10 min later than the BUFFs and get there at the same time.

***NEW RECON REPORTS ARE IN***

2 more UBoat yards have been discovered. One at Field F89 Lubeck, and F83 Wismar.

6 total targets.

sure you havn't exceeded the fuel range of p-47's with these added targets?

Its 250 mi. 1 way. I'll check.

You are correct. We will need to use P-51D. I will have the ground crews work day and night to get our P-51's ready to go with the new modifications.


Standard SOP limits the P47D-25 to a 230 mi combat radius.

(The Jug does have plenty enough fuel to get there and back, however if we have to drop the externals with more than 100 gals in them (which would put us somewhere in the 7,8 grid), we would not have the fuel to engage enemy fighters as we would run dry over the channel.)

We could forego the two farthest UBoat yards, however command wants us to disable as many UBoat Yards as possible.

Standard SOP combat radius for the P-51D is 450 mi. Therefore, I see no choice but to take the P-51D.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Is 75% destroyed sub pen objects considered a "disabled" U-boat yard or does than include 75% of all the building and facilities objects (Warehouses, Factories, Cranes, Docks) in the area?
