View Full Version : Possible Carrier in the Area?

Hi guys,

I have SH4 v1.5 with the Operation Monsun mod.

I was patrolling today when I came across something odd - I've never seen anything like it before. There was a LOT of planes and plane "convoys" off shore, so I went to check it out because I thought a carrier would be nearby. I sent scout planes to check out the area too. I did this constantly for almost 3 in-game weeks.

There wasn't a single carrier NOR ship taskforce and it seems like these planes and plane convoys were moving in a random order...? (no pattern or specific route) Programming glitch in Operation Monsun? Or am I missing something?

I've included a screenshot of the map which shows a small cluster of plane convoys (there were more before I took the screenshot) with the date shown.

So - is it a carrier?

Nope, planes from England. They patrolled the Bay of Biscay petty heavily from 43 on from land bases in England.
