There were 9 of the Lightnings lost along with 2 P-40Es and 3 Hurricane IIb models. The defenders got some licks in, but without apparent effect. Our naval search could be better in this area, but we are still training pilots for that mission. Seeing them would not permit us to hit the raiders in this case anyway.Night Naval bombardment of Chittagong at 55,41 - Coastal Guns Fire Back!
