And upgrade the II to the IIA.

Ebbor how many Ravens could we add wing mounted rockets to in a day with the governments help?

We have the rockets already for it and with help we'd have plenty of people to do the work.

The rockets are fairly easy to add. You should be able to equip them all in a modest timeframe, providing you have the rockets, and willing to accept a few misfires.

What % is a few and what kind of missfire?

Modest like 48-72 hours.

How about a Sparrow III with 2 guns only?

Our problem was inability for Sparrows to get into position, not killing them.

The new model is faster and more agile as well as better armed.

And why bother with 4 if 2 is enough to bring something down?

Any firepower in excess of that is essentially firing bullets at thin air. By all means we do not need that, and that alone is a quarter of the fighter's cost.

If only you knew. Misfire range from not firing, to fire in a completely wrong direction, spontaneous explosion.

With enough manpower, you could accomplish that in that timeframe, yes.

Thoughts Pi?

I'm all for it, when the fleets clash a lot of people will die.

Having a trick up our sleeve like 400+ rocket armed Ravens is a serious advantage if used right.
Have them attack from the enemy flank or rear after the Ospreys finish there run aiming for the cruisers, carriers and raiders if any are still alive.
That many rockets should finish them off and such a large flank attack will have a huge morale impact.

The Osprey can provide air cover for them when they come in incase the Sparrows miss anything.

It's do or die time so the risk of losing a few to accidents is a minor cost if it helps us win the battle.
The enemy fleet has to be sank, no matter what the cost.

Darn was hoping that was after the 100 lost.

Ahh well we have a 2-1 edge not counting Ospreys. How long would it take to upgrade the current Sparrows to IIA if we drafted every possible man?

Not including those on Raven work.

Looking at Navy numbers I think we can manage a counterattack

Dislike Sparrow III with two machineguns, with Protectors and Piranhas going out of production (I hope A will be voted) and yet another machinegun production increase We should have enough machineguns to arm them all


And I am not sure that refiting fighters is a good course of action... maybe after the large counterattack... WEe can't allow ourself to put ny fighter out of combat
