Have the time limits on towns and hanger downtimes been changed?

I and another player were attackin v44 on SMPizza, the VHs were freshly dropped, yet somehow they popped back up well before the 15 mins.  Can hangers now be resupplied?  

HT, please clarify what the downtimes are for towns and buildings and whether or not they can be resupplied now.  Thx.

If Im not mistakin I think they can be. Some times flying 15mins in AH seems shorter I have a clock right by my computer so I remember the time when ever I take out hangers and need to keep time. This has been asked many times but it would be great to have alittle timer for the hangers counting down for when they will pop.

I stole my Girlfriends baking timer for that :D

Its still 15 min on all hangers and they can not be resupped

10 mi for CV respawn and 10 min for manned ack, 45 min for town buildings

all other things can fluxuate, depending on zones, resupp and factory's

Especially on VBases, Hangar downtime seems to be shorter sometimes, because people witness that Vehicles are disabled less than 15mins, maybe 13 or even a bit less.
But due to the new base layout, hangars are rarely dropped at the same time now. As long as one VH is up, vehicles are enabled. For example,  if it takes an attacker 2 minutes to drop all 3 VH's (maybe two passes in a Lanc), the effective downtime will be 13 mins only.

Yes you have to make 2 passes to take out all 3 That may be the reason it doesnt seem so long.

Is that 100% correct always thought it was 15 min?
