I just tested Pauls and Sierans in my sandbox scenario. I had 36 of each on naval attack. I had an allied AK task force 1 hex from Bikini. I had a base force to provide AV support. Both plane types launched and hit the AK's with bombs. I did not test with an HQ to see if torpedoes would launch.
I could only test from a level 1 air field. I tried to do it with a dot base, but I could not get the air groups to show up at the base. They only showed up if the air field was level 1.
Thank you Bradley. Good to know for later in the game.
