SS + 4 FIG also means you’re short 2 FIGs elsewhere. And if Russia killed 2 FIGs then you are basically dedicating your entire air force to kill off one lousy battleship.

90% chance of success with 2 fighters and a submarine. That’s friggin stellar! That’s 10% more then I like to see in an attack!

Yea, so now you have 100%. You sacrifice 2 fighters that could be used in repelling the Russian attack for 10% better chance to sink a battleship. Sounds like a waste to me, but hey, if you want to go that route, more power too you! I’d love to have your fighters off the Eastern Front and not attacking my Russians! I’ll wipe the eastern half of Europe off the map before you even get a chance to recover those fighters to any usable place. Meanwhile, now your armor and artillery is destroyed and the Americans and British are threatening heavy landings in Western Europe, tieing down more assets all because you decided to waste your firepower on massive over kill isntead of reclaiming eastern europe provinces for Germany. All for a measely 10% extra chance of survival from a battle you’d be able to retreat from at will anyway.
Not to mention, one you shouldnt BE in. You shoulda gone SS, BB, TRN, FIG vs BB Which, btw gives you thus:

Again, almost 100% chance of victory, gives you the ability to use your fighters more productively and positions your fleet in such a way to secure Africa from Allied invasion on G2. Also, if you bring an infantryman, you can prevent any serious counter attack by England’s air farce. Win/Win/Win for Germany. (And before you ask, put your bid in N. Africa to take out Egypt and kill off the DD with a fighter, or ignore it. It’s one lousy DD and if England goes BMB, DD vs BB, SS, TRN you’re going to win.)
