I heard theres a formula for killing a cv. At a certain height you lead the cv by 1 carrier length. What alt do you lead the cv by 1 carrier length if this is true.

1 cv length for 10k of alt.

So at 5k half a length, at 15k 1 & 1/2.

This works too.  Might be the same move but different words.

Put cross hairs on CV's route, but align on the Cruiser between a midship and the stern.

Rumor is that 8k is were CV ack is the least lethal.

3/4 boat lead for 8k.
