昭和17年2月10日、空母の艦上機によりバリ島Denpasarの飛行場が爆撃されました。空襲した連合軍空母はDenpasarから南西3ヘクスのインド洋にいました。機動部隊はフローレス海にいるので、西に移動させて連合軍空母を叩きたいところです。ただ、気になる点があります。DenpasarにやってきたのがF2A-3 Buffaloが6機、F4F-3 Wildcatが16機、TBD-1 Devastatorが15機ととても少なかったこと。10隻の空母からならもっと多数で攻撃できそうな気がします。また哨戒機の情報でも空母が2隻しか報告されていません。きっと連合軍は空母機動部隊を二手に分けているんだろうと想像されます。うかつに近寄ると未発見の空母の方から攻撃されたりして。どこにいるのかは分かりませんが、少なくともクーパンからゼロ戦の護衛付きで陸攻が雷撃できる距離である14ヘクス以内には近寄ってこないでしょう。なので少しだけ、機動部隊を西に移動させて様子をみることにしました。
I-15がTransmarine cargo級 xAK Chicksaw City(tonnage 3050, VP 6)を撃沈しました。位置的にパナマからオーストラリア方面に独航していた貨物船のようです。お返しにラバウルにfuelを輸送した帰りのAO Toei MaruがSS O16に雷撃されました。日本側の航路は特定しやすいので仕方がないのですが、こんなところまでオランダの潜水艦が出張ってきているとは。まあトラックの南隣のヘクスで、空荷だし、魚雷一本命中なので、鎮火すれば沈没はないだろうと希望的観測で明日を待つことにしました。I-26搭載のGlenがアメリカの西海岸のはるか南方沖でコンボイを発見しました。この船団には空母が含まれています。貨物船は独航させてはいても、APは大切なのでDDや護衛空母でエスコートさせているようです。北東に航行しているので目的地はサンフランシスコでしょうか。サンフランシスコ近くの潜水艦をこのコンボイの予想進路上に移動させてみました。
Ki-49-Ia Helenの生産開始が1ヶ月早まって、昭和17年3月からになりました。Helenは5ラインで研究開発させていますが、ゲーム開始後に転用したラインはまだ修理中で、実際にR&Dポイントを算出しているのはゲーム開始時から修理済みの横浜の規模14のラインだけです。今日は67ターンですから、これまでにこの横浜のラインの産出したR&Dポイントは31ポイント(=14x67/30)にしかならないと思います。1ヶ月早めるのに必要なR&Dポイントは100なので、Ki-49-Ia Helenに関してはゲーム開始時に0ポイントではなくて70ポイントくらいたまった状態なんでしょうね。
せっかく生産開始が早まったKi-49-Ia Helenですが、Ki-21-IIa Sallyより航続距離が1ヘクス短いので生産する予定はなく、本命は次世代のKi-49-IIa Helenです。以前、同型機種間の機種変更を生かしたR&D工場利用法 、R&D工場の規模そのままで修理中にならずに変換できる機種というエントリーで紹介したように、生産開始の前月にはR&D工場の研究対象を次世代機に変更してもラインが修理中になったりしない仕様なので、修理の完了している横浜のラインはKi-49-IIa HelenのR&Dに変更しました。ほかのラインも修理が完了され次第、Ki-49-IIa Helenに変更する予定です。フル稼働するとKi-49-IIa Helenの生産開始も9月から6月くらいまで早まるかもしれません。
といったん書いた後に、考えが変わってきました。前回のPBEMとは違ってLilyを全く生産していないので、前線の部隊すべてを双発爆撃機配備にするのにもまだ数が足りていません。Ki-49-Ia Helenの航続距離は短くてもビルマや中国などの陸地の戦線ではあまり問題ないのと、Ha-32エンジンがSallyとBettyで取り合いになっていて不足気味な問題もあります。やはり1ライン分くらいは製造させた方がいいかなとも思えてきました。
