Gentlemen & Ladies,
Here are the preliminary frame 2 results. I have not finished looking for violations so this might change a bit but should give you a rough picture of the frame.
United States
1250 = Air Victories
- 20 = Friendly Fire deaths
1206 = Bombing from destroying enemy targets (70.7% enemy targets destroyed)
0303 = Defense, from undamaged parts of their bases
TOTAL = 2739
Japanese
0900 = Air Victories
- 40 = Friendly Fire deaths
1421 = Bombing from destroying enemy targets (82.4% enemy targets destroyed)
0500 = Defense, from undamaged parts of their bases
TOTAL = 2781
General Comments
Well as you can see having actual multi engine bomber aircraft drastically increased the bombing results for both sides. The main work horse for the Japanese the Ju88 standing in for the Betty and for the U.S. the B25C along with 10 B17s. This time though the Japanese won the bombing war destroying 82.4% of their targets to the U.S. 70.7% destruction rate.
But they paid a heavy price for this Bomb Damage rate losing significant amount of Ju88s. Coupled with killing less american planes the U.S. won the air war overall 1250 to 900.
Again the frame is basically a tie with the Japanese at 2781 and the U.S. 2739, Japan up this frame by 42 points.
TOTALS FRAME 1 & 2
5068 = US
5002 = Japan
U.S. up by 66 points.
