Low AA Strength and Wrong Planes in CVB Midway?

Post by cfulbright »

Hopefully I win my GC before the CVB Midway enters the game, but I was curious to see its stats, so I checked it out in the Ship Availability list. It has a surprisingly low AntiAircraft value of 1380 - it has 18 5", 84 40mm, and 72 20mm, compared to a long-hulled Essex like Kearsage, which has an AA value of 1460 with only 12 5", 68 40mm, and 60 20mm. Is this correct?

Also, its air complement includes VT-74 with 18 SB2C-5 Helldivers. Shouldn't it have Avengers?

The AA looks wrong, but it did carry SB2Cs and they were torpedo-capable.
