Will enemy forces attack your carrier?

Just made a Desert 1981 campaign with the Kitty Hawk off shore. Will the Paran airforce ever attack it?

I think no they won't. Carriers in current state are indestructable and not targetable IIRC.

 

Rumor has it Tomcat sim will have sinkable carriers

I wonder how the Rising Sun mod will recreate the sea battles then....

'prolly the same way I did for my WW2 mods, a coupla years ago.

 

create a "new" ship item from the CV, withOUT the ability to launch/recover aircraft (its a simple data ini edit). It's just treated like any other warship. Add to _types ini, place via _targes ini and you have carriers you can attack and sink (btw, they DO shoot back)

I like that rumor. I read Red Storm Rising when I was a kid, and I missed out on Fleet Defender. Maybe I'll get a second chance. :)

As Wrench above wrote. These will be treated as every other ground/sea object. Check the ships in faboulous Falklands mod

one mission, post mission editor, according to red crown i had killed the Kitty Hawk after launching 12 SRAMs at it from a Buff! damn if it wasnt still there floating though btw, Buffs are fun when loaded with SRAMs, DCA SEAD Strike Cas all in one flight
