To get some cover from Luftwaffe, a german airfield has to be near.
The "friendly port" is no german installation, but an interned german ship providing fuel and rearm. No aircrafts involved!
Sending a contact report is no "order" to get the Luftwaffe engaged. Aircrafts have to be available and in range. They may help you out - or not.
(There is a certain probability coded to make them appear)
Good luck, Herr Kaleun!
