China needs to legitimize their hold over these fake island bases theyve conjured up. Every time they challenge us or some other power over them, and we back down, it makes their foot-hold a little more legit.
Submarine question
-
If a sub attacks a lone transport outside an enemy island with an airbase and fighters, is the transport automatically sunk, or does scrambling do anything to prevent that?
-
The fighters can scramble. However, since there is no defending destroyer, they can’t hit the sub. As a result, the transport will be sunk anyway.
