not sure if i have seen this question posted and if it has then i apologize for the duplication.
how are aircraft (a/c) deployed during a career mission?
by that i mean, what prompts a sortie?
are a/c sortied from both a CVA and an airbase with regularity?
or
is the sortie only because the player-sub has been detected, with course and speed noted for future patrols?
next, should it be assumed that an a/c sortie begins at an existing airbase AND that the a/c is limited by the range indicated in the Cfg files or is there some Ubi-secret-file of extended ranges, armament, etc that come into play?
i have some follow-ups but they are contingent on the answers to the above.
