Very useful, thank you.

My understanding of the Soviet doctrine would be to have multiple regiments, up to four, attack simultaneously (over 100 aircraft). Many of those would be support aircraft and not necessarily missile carriers. Does Gordon detail divisional level attacks?

"Soviet Naval Tactics" by Milan Vego has some similar diagrams. The book is well worth getting (if you can find a copy). I posted one in my AAR here: https://www.grogheads.com/forums/index. ... ic=25950.0
