Bring the Kamikaze to AH

IF it was perked to say 150 then it would be quite fun it would stop swarms of them, and would make a really good mission.

Perking the kamikaze isn't the answer.

Making the ack harder to get through is the answer. That would put an end to the diving lancs, etc, etc. Making the ships harder to kill is another. Currently the fleets are easy to kill. Two runs in a 38 or 47 can do it easy enough. Last night I wasted one near 44, and the next guy to bomb it easily killed the carrier minutes later. Waaay too easy to do.

During the war the ack was pretty good at downing kamikazes, although a lot of the kills were from the fighter cap that intercepted them further away from the fleet.

I, for one, would love to be able to do a kamikaze mission on a fleet with a group of 50 planes. Maybe 15 - 20 would actually get through.  I would love to see the baka  available, (but moderately perked). With a tougher fleet, it could make for some great battles. It would also eliminate the mostly-one-sided fleet attacks on shore bases and force attackers to use resources to protect their feet in an attack.

I think adding more ships to a CV task group would be a better solution, along with a larger amount of more accurate "puffy" ack, at lower altitude.  Yhey would have to get by more AAA at a greater distance from the CV, AND it would keep the CV further offshore.

easy fix

then make the player sit in the tower for 10 minutes so he can contemplate the consequences of his actions.

Here! Here!
But up the time to 30 minutes.
