**This can only be triggered once per sortie, even so the button is always clickable.

In maps where a [[LBAS|Land Base]] is present, an additional mechanic may be imposed where an enemy abyssal fleet will attack the allied Land Base. A text alert saying '''"Enemy formation approaching! Enemy aircraft are approaching our base." (敵編隊接近中！我が航空基地に敵機接近中。)''' will appear in the map screen and the Raid will follow shortly. Raids may trigger whenever traveling to another node.
