Any Chance of Luftwaffe Support?

Never seen a friendly aircraft in the Atlantic/North Sea, even after sending contact reports.

I've been playing a career in the Med and have seen them attack a 4 ship convoy I had just attacked and later on a single Greek vessel just as I was about to launch an eel. They threw my solution off due to changing speeds(due to damage they caused). I saw she was unarmed and I popped up to get her with my gun before I wasted eels only to have the flyboys get the credit.

They attacked one other 3 ship convoy on another patrol after I sank the Aquatania

and they got the Large Troopship that was with her.

I never sent a contact report in any of the cases.

Hello sharkbit

Do you play stock, GWX, WAC, NYGM ?

I ask because obviously they are different, with different Campaigns, and different Air Bases.

With WAC I saw air attacks in enemy harbors, nothing more. With GWX nothing never.

I try to insert a german large air base (a secret one...) in Azores Islands or Madeira, but I received CDT. . .

But the game accept improvement for bomber's speed and radius . . .

I'm playing GWX2.1 right now. Waiting on a new rig to update to GWX3.0.
I may give NYGM a try when I get to the end ogf the war in my 2 GWX careers(one in the Med and the other out of Lorient).

The LW did show up once during one of my Med campaigns. Even though they weren't really invited (hadn't sent a contact report) they were most welcome. I had just hit & sank a freighter that had been escorted by two AA destroyers. The escorts were busily hunting for me; trying to exact revenge when a flight of 3 Ju-87's & another flight of 3 Ju-88's arrived on the scene. They provided a much needed distraction for the escorts & I was able to slip away unmolested. When I last saw them the aircraft were pounding the crap out of the AA destroyers; one ship was burning & listing heavily...
