RE: The Elephant Vanishes :: obvert (J) vs Historiker (A)

Yes that 86 days repair time in pier-side mode will just clear the system damage, maybe a point or two of minor engine/flood.

I'm really surprised she made it to port [&o] but then they were aerial torps not sub launched?

AVD - supports the operations of seaplanes and floatplanes - no transport ability
AKV - aircraft transport - transports an air unit whole
AK/xAK - carries an air unit as crated cargo
