How Air Strike works ...and a news!

Hi folks,

I made a test to see how air strike works. I created a little scenario with merchant convoy (8 ships) 150km West from Brest. I put around Brest four bombers and fighters air bases.

7.00am: upon my watches saw ships, I sent the radio message. I remind you the call is good ending when you can see your message sent in the radio log. Otherwise, you can't have air cover.

7.32am: radar warning receiver adviced me radar signals... RAF incoming!

7.47am: Lufthwaffe attacks convoy!

8.30am: an other Lufthwaffe raid!

After 9.00: all quiet....

At 9:36 my sonarman advices me WARSHIPS incoming!

But..

I didn't put any warships in the scenario! At free camera sight I saw this:

german warships!

s-boat, DD, DD, DD, s-boat.

So... it seems when the air cover request is accepted.. BdU sends also warships!!

this is pretty new for me..
