That's just a vagary of the game. They really should just use "Group of Unidentified Ships" or something.
yes, i agree. this is very inconsistent with previous versions (Stock, TMO, RSRD, etc). if there is more than one ship sailing together it's a convoy (small, medium, large) even if there are escorts, it's still a convoy. the group becomes a task force when the number of warships outnumbers the number of non-warships. my point is that the pre-spawn icon of "a warship" is not consistent with past performance.
