Dommage que les betty ne soit pas équipé de torpille, c'est là ou les quelques hex de plus font la différence pour le G3M3...

Situation des combats au dessus de Myitkyina qui est très régulièrement bombardé par les B-25C Mitchell (environ tout les 2 jours), escorté par des P-40E ou P-40K Warhawk.
Il m’empêche ici de développer une base, peut être est ce son future objectif pour la reconquête de la Birmanie?



Exemple du rapport de perte du 5 Novembre, ou l'on annonce 11 P-40E Warhawk au tapis, et 2 B-25 Mitchell.



J'ai deux escadrille de Ki-44 IIa Tojo qui participe aux combats.

Le 47th I.F. Chutai qui est équipé de seulement 12 chasseurs et qui enregistrera 17 avions abattus en moins de 2 semaines de combats pour 2 pilotes blessés


Et le 11th Sentai avec 38 appareils qui a détruits 30 appareils en 5 jours sans perdre de pilotes, mais 4 de blessés.


le bilan est très bon:
40 appareils ennemis abattus, principalement des P-40 en 15 jours de combats, sans perte de pilotes, seulement 6 de blessé qui pourront revenir, mais avec 10 d'expérience en moins.
