welllllll
 
I work that out to be about 779, so, the 109 no, maybe the 110, (the 110Ds yea)
 
overall, it is a slaughter waiting to happen, but if the GE get AS on the southern coast, then it is a workable idea
 
(I really wouldn't want to see anyone try it on the first day of the battle)

LOL

well, that is why you don't depend on the net for everything

I get that it could carry two 300 liter drop tanks, and it could carry a extra 150 liters in the wings (single, not double)

a fighter ? hmmm, maybe vs a Suka

there is another base closer to Brest, but I don't think that is going to get used too much or will be for a sneak attack
 
 
I wonder if the players are going to know, that in Real Life, most of the Units on these bases are going to be moved ?
 
shortly after the start of the main battle, almost all of the Fighters will be moved to Luft 2, along with the Stukas from VIII and the bombers from X
 
the at start line up, is pretty much the end Phase I (Channel Battle)
