:bolt:



I am thinking the "Hanger" that is circled on the snapshot above is for a different type of Hangar....... perhaps at a port or a city or strat target, not the Hangars at airfields and GV bases

look up above it and you will notice "Ftr Hgr"  with a downtime of 15 minutes and a hardness of 2.7813 ---> which equals the 2,700/2,800 lbs of bombs/rkts needed to destroy a Fighter Hangar....... this is correct just like in game online ( that snap shot I am pretty sure is from offline )


hope this helps

Aha!  So the 30-minute down time and relative softness of the hanger means we have an excuse to just throw our clothes in a pile in the corner if someone was to pork the hanger.  :aok

I assumed the hundreds of planes that can be stored in a single hangar were just pressed neatly and hung on racks with hangers to save space.

Its a deprecated object type that was replaced with the granulation of hanger types: fighter, bomber and vehicle as the game evolved over time

HT rarely if ever removes things from its line up be it plane or object once deprecated...thus their are remnant legacy things left laying around...

Such as this.

  Seems to me that if the hangars are in the process of being repaired and you hit them again, it should extend the down time.  Doesn't work that way in AH.
