Saipan is one of the most difficult CVs to play due to the long restoration of its planes. The HP of the planes give you a false sense of "hey, I can tank this AA," as I fallen for that plenty of times. It happens more often if top tier games. On the other hand, the HP and the same planes as Midway, does allow you to pull some funky attacks on bottom tier ships. The rockets and DBs doe the exact same damage as Midway, but the TBs do 6.7k per torp instead of Midways 5k.
Very good example at what the saipan is capable of in good hands. Having basically a Midway at tier 8 with Lexington torps is just great. I had a game yesterday where I did like 130k in tier 10 and made 1.27m credits. Best game in my Saipan so far
any tier 8 cv with low plane hp and slower sqaud speed is just a worse soviet carrier..you really only get one good strike off but you lack alpha dmg to make it worth it imo. US cv line is rough rn...
I actually have to disagree. The saipan is great in good hands. I managed to do ~138k in my saipan in a tier 10 game yesterday. The planes are the exact same as Midway, except TBs have better damage, 6.7k (Lexington/Enterprise torps), to Midways 5k. The balancing factor that makes the planes feel squishy is that they gave a saipan the longest plane recovery time in game (even longer than FDR) and slower turn I think.
Bless you for doing great in the Saipan. I got one from a container and just couldn't get it to work
