Operation Tungsten
In correlation with the various European elements updated and reintroduced, and the comeback of the Heavy Bombers and the AGDP, it is speculated that another part of the next event could be:
- Operation Tungsten and the Tirpitz hunt in Norway.
Copied from Wikipedia:
Operation Tungsten was a Second World War Royal Navy air raid that targeted the German battleship Tirpitz. The operation sought to damage or destroy Tirpitz at her base in Kaafjord in the far north of Norway before she could become fully operational again following a period of repairs.
The AGDP is speculated to come back in such operation.
- It is required for CV(B/L), Ise-class Kai Ni, and Akitsu Maru Kai, to sortie on "arctic maps".
