全天的航母大战至此结束，盟军重创黄蜂号和萨拉托加号，企业无损$ {; F, b, a: x/ \
日军沉没龙骧号和云鹰号，2鹤无损

kevin_hx

打AE瓜岛这会，对AE里CV的直掩和护航没有什么概念，零战基本没上舰，一个零战机队设置的是百分比护航直掩，所以最终导致直掩数量很可怜，即使在2鹤上空也是如此，如果不是和miniKB分开配置，说不定这次2鹤就交代了
' D# ^/ F( ~" f' T( s) n后来才发现，0格直掩基本不升疲劳的，所以，后来KB的配置都是至少2队零战，1队全护航，1队0格全直掩，效果大增；
5 A' K3 K% X" `0 S  B5 B另外也发现，直掩并不是螺母所说的一无是处，直掩虽然不能完全拦截SBD，但是可以有效干扰突防的SBD投弹，导致命中下降，所以嘛，螺母误人啊。。。。
