Will the lady pilots be offered again, or are they now and I simply missed it?

Fair warning. My success rate at speculative guesswork is on par with my WinRate. Hit or Miss.
I start on the right track and then sometimes make a weird left turn and get lost in the weeds ...

When they came around the last time, that was the second time. Hopefully there'll be a third, with less ridiculous condition (or were they on premium shop then, I can't remember).
The one with black cat is obsoleted though.

Heck no she is not. She still kills ground things after you leave them still in tact, and kills things faster. And she has a black cat.

Automatic fire starting is not at all obsolete.
same as double damage ordinance in a dive and double damage forward guns in a head on attack.

Excellent short read. Thanks Moonrider. Hmmm, Moonrider and Nachthexen...Coincidence?
Interestingly, the flat-black painted Black Cat PBYs on night operations in the Pacific Theatre used the same technique of stifling engines on approach and it worked quite well, too, I understand.

It only works on unarmored targets now so it really is only good at lower tiers where guns do not obliterate unarmored pieces.
Has to be, Moonrider is my 80's era CB handle, taken from a character in the Roger Zelazny novels Changeling and Madwand.
