Home Islands west. Tokara Retto airfield is size 3, Yakushima airfield is size 2, and Kochi airfield is size 4 about to expand to size 5. Kochi has plenty of air support in place but those two islands will need more to operate many more fighters. More is being shipped in from the Marianas.

Air losses. The B-24J groups from Hokkaido had good escorts but they - and their escorts - still managed to significantly weaken the CAP for the sweepers that followed by using up all the CAP's ammunition.

Osaka/Kyoto. The B-29B groups all strayed due to night - none found Osaka/Kyoto in the rain. The B-24J groups found it in daytime but paid heavily for their progress.

Do you get supply flow from the USSR before they activate? Specifically, from USSR to China? Doesn't sound right...

You are probably right. I am just an optimist. [:'(]

Home Islands west. Kochi airfield to size 5. A number of night strikes against our fleet last night and the great majority were intercepted by night fighters. No hits on our ships. Movement on the trail is slow and that's just how it is.
A number of assault convoys have been dispatched to pick up Kumamoto invaders. Some are in the Marianas so this will take a bit. PacAO is loading now at Daito Shoto to take up operations at Yakushima for the invasion.

Osaka/Kyoto. The B-29B had a number of strays again last night but many did find their target and boosted the Fires at Osaka/Kyoto to almost 43,000.
