[Yamato 0]

y not i think japan will be cool

[trevor 0]

well if its not capable then pointless to put japan in

[Godwin 0]

of course it's possible

[Chrono 0]

or is it?

[Smurf Bizkit 0]

I would think its possible...basically just make a movable, water based airfield. Naval is far off, so I havn't had time to think about it much.

[trevor 0]

ok cool

[Yamato 0]

how many planes would it have

[trevor 0]

what type of biulding you gonna use to make them

 

how you gonna et it there

[Biohazard 0]

No clue at all. Just fo'get about naval stuff fo' now since it just ain't happ'nin brutha. You'd be better off expending energy on tanks and ground forces.

[trevor 0]

id rather use only tank infanttr and planes

Weren't there some specific planes that were made to take off aircraft carriers? Because I'm not really good at WW2 I wouldn't know :(. But it would make Sea to Sea (air to sea as well ;)) combat a bit more exciting with different planes on the sea :D.

corsair, hellcat, swordfish, zero, etc. to name a few.

i get sea sick, so dont liek boats much,

 

 

but the carrier is the most important ship, its liek the queen of the fleet

many planes were biult for them

 

Japan had a helicopter carrier, japan had air gyros in ww2, not many and werent used but they had them

 

 

=)

i was wondering if you have japan and have carriers how many types would you have and whould they be in diffrent sizes

[Yamato 0]

sorry i ment diffrent classes

[Joker 0]

i believe the germans had helicopters too. and the US used them for rescue operations.

[kornlord283 0]

helicopters in WWII? sorry not that up to date here

[trevor 0]

KA-1 Japanese Air Jyro

 

originaly a 2 seater, then changed to a 1 seater with a depth charge udnerneath it

 

[Yamato 0]

i dont think it would be a good idea 2 have those in the game they would get shot down so easy by flak

so dont have helicopter caerrier it would just be a waste of time building them if you add them in

 

i think have carriers with zeros, Aichi D3A1

 

and have Shinano for design

[sverkuijlen2000 0]

What's a shinano?

Is it a carrier class?

(if so post picture please)

[Yamato 0]

shinano was going to be one of the battleships in the Yamato class but was changed into a carrier when it was being built
