My apologies Veloz but my ability to translate is very google rudimentary. I'm quite lost as to what you are writing.

This guy is a troll and is spamming the forum with unintelligible posts.

Thanks LST. It did cross my mind given the weirdness of the posts. I thought I should do the honourable reaction and be polite.

Since you explained that you had other heavy escorts not pictured in the replay then I will withdraw my statement in regard to that. Yes heavy weather can work against even that many fighters in the CAP. I guess a lack of radar was a critical issue.

No worries. It can be hard to divine exactly what is going on just from the combat reports. Oh how I long for any radar.
