You don't need to excuse yourself: I was just kidding and your question was pertinent

Unfortunately, I don't think SH5 capaign can keep track of the sunk ships of a given class, for deciding wether to spawn them again the next time, or not. Afaik the one factors that the game is taking into account when picking units intended for generic or convoy traffic, are unit type and unit availability dates which, being written of file, are static settings.

On the other hand, if you sink an unit within a convoy, I am quite sure it won't respawn within the same convoy, even though you temporarily loose contact with it. Not the same with damage and ammo loadouts: they aren't recorded in memory nor in savegame. It means that if you loose contact or save the game, hit points, shells, bombs, torpedoes, etc. of any unit will be reset to factory settings when you meet it again.

yes, my bad, I overlooked that the planned HMS Agincourt was cancelled just before the outbreak of WWI
