you'll see the effect of radar in the combat msgs given during the A2A phase. Your going to see more descriptive msgs in general. The #'s engaging also change more dynamically. They can go up instead of just down (due to morale failure rolls)

I'm glad to here that, more info during air combat would be welcomed by me.

Part of the problem is that the game puts a higher priority on carriers, so they will draw airstrikes like moths to a lamp. You'd be much better off if you could designate your bombers to attack my transports only, but there is no mechanism to do so currently (that I am aware of, maybe someone here knows a way).
No, there isn't a way. [8|]

Too bad really, kinda pointless to send 200 aircraft to get slaughtered by carrier cap, when the transports are the real threat anyway.

Ok, excuse me if I am not understanding this, but even if you set cap to 0 percent for the carrier based fighters,, a Carrier with decent radar will allow up to 90% of them to engage incoming enenmy attacks?
I normlly have all of my fighters on carriers set to 90% cap as it is so I have never seen this.
I don't think that 0% will work...any low percentage - yes, but 0 is 0.

By 1944 you will find yourself constantly facing 2-300 Hellcats and Corsairs on CAP and it's next to impossible
to get through. If your opponents 'stacks' more cv's the number can be 3 times has hight [8|]
Ehm...how you sink the allied CVs?
Being bounced by 2-300 Hellcats and Corsairs is a very thrilling experience [:'(]
Advice you to enjoy the Happy times of 1943 [:D]
I believe to be a Japanese fanboy, but I think that I choice the wrong side [:)]

When you make an air strike how you change the CAP?
Is more important the defence or the attack?
