In LwAmi mod the aircraft carriers are one of few targets an ASW torpedo is able to hit... the safe feature of ASW torpedos are enaugh to prevent hitting most surface targets, but carriers are too big.
BTW, what damage could an Mk46 or Mk50 do to an aircrat carrier ? 1% ? 0.1% ? :-) maybe we should review warhead damage points, of dedicated ASW torps, not sure what LW set them to currently...
After introducing new definition of ceiling setting by Luftwolf and maybe pure ASW mode for AI air dropped torps, this will not happen again. Torpedos dropped against a sub target would completly ignore the Nimitz as an surface target.
But hmm the warhead damage values maybe should be reviewed... I the warheads should be given realistic values based on warhead size, and to ensure single hitn can sink a sub, the sub damage values should be reduced instead in comparison to surface ships.
