Historically, from where the Japanese paratroopers were coming? In game, the only possible location is from
Kuala Lumpur. But due to the weather, the naval transports needed and the supply trucks, it does not worth the investment.
Better to use the airborne troops elsewhere. Anyone else did try to use airborne units in DEI?

Ya it is sometimes worth it if your forces are having difficulty and you NEED the oil, but generally not worth it

Still don't find from where they were coming historically. Anyone knows?
In the game, a paradrop from Borneo is impossible, they are short in range.

The 2nd Raiding Reg. was broken up into two attack groups:
The 1st Attack Group flew from Kleung and Kahang - both southwest of Mersing/northwest of Singapore
The 2nd Attack Group flew from Sungai Petani - south of the Alor Star airfields

Perfect, thanks a lot for this. So, they were coming from
Malaya. Thanks again.
