I used to use AVs for patrolling areas without naval search capability. I often found they got sunk too quickly...usually by a passing allied CV.


Guess they served their purpose...[:D]
A much better way to find out if allied CVs are around is put out a bunch of subs and see if they are spotted by SBDs.


That's assuming the Allied player has his planes on Naval Search at the place and time...[;)]


Think of it terms of the Iragi and Serbian AAA batteries that would keep their RADAR off lest the Americans would detect their radar signature ...
