Deck 5 Opening Salvo - Meteor F Mk. III and C6N "Myrt"

The name is in keeping with British sea plane naming standards. Planes are named for coastal and port towns.

Port Canso is the oldest fishing port in North America and played a key role in defeating the French.

Interesting...

First impression is Meteor is a point or 2 overcosted.

Not really sure how I feel about Myrt to be frank, I'm curious to try it out for sure, but not too keen on carrier overstack and its possible effect on placement combined with Shadowing.

One mitigating factor is that it's classed as a fighter so can't benefit from escort

Interceptor is pretty much a non SA in my experience. One of the cases for overstack was allowing the ijn to match placement with the us without relying on weak ghost squads and rufes.

The Myrt is a wierd plane. I like the weird stuff. A zero AA fighter that prevents Interceptor. Also more vulnerable to the Advanced Fighters; this makes sense, the later-war planes are more likely to have the performance to catch a Myrt.

I'm mixed with the Meteor. Glad that the Allies have their own jet now, and the Brits have another late-war fighter. I'm still unsure about jets in a naval game ending in 1945.
