When the TWO ammo bunkers are hit, Ords will be down for 30 minutes just like the small air fields. They stay down longer if the ammo factory strats have been hit. This will level the playing field when a cv is attacking an air field. This forces both sides to defend their ords and add strategy to the deployment of a Carrier Group as well.

If ammo gets hit on the cv there shouldn't be anything left of it.

With a certain amount of damage the planes do not have access to the loading of bombs. It amounts to the same thing as when ords are dropped at a small field.

Exactly

Yanno what happens when the ammo is destroyed onboard a ship, Right?
It goes BOOM. Like the Arizona
What you want is an ammunition ship. During WWII these were most commonly converted merchant C2 Cargo ships
SS Donald McKay

Or the USS Mount Hood

I like the commentary on that.
"The Burke was destroyed in seconds with the loss of every single man on board"
Seconds? I dont even think it was that long?
Hellooo captain obvious!

Actually you forget the newsreels.
Notice the commentator mentions the cameraman. Why would he mention the cameraman not knowing where to point his camera and just missing the impact of the kamikaze if it were a radio broadcast?
