Scrapping: 1 x AO (completed), 6 x MTB


A. Factories

9/11 factories = 9,000 t of material + 12,703 t stockpiled + 150 t scrap + 3,625 t from China + 277 t from Persia = 25,755 t available.

10,615 t are used, leaving a stockpile of 15,140 t.

Just a small nitpick - a typo really.

You indicate that two committed factories yield 0.2 IP plus 0.0 bonus IP, but a total of 0.4 IP were used to complete the floating dry dock at Sittwe. I am going to presume that you are taking credit for the bonus.

Looking at the other 1945 reports, the bonus of 0.0 would be an error and should be 0.2.

Also I thought India transferred the Sangadila in Q3 so are you transferring another Sangadila to Japan? Not that Japan is complaining with India's two for the price of one action... :)

It's 0.2 + 0.2 IP. I was certain I'd changed that.

Sorry, Japan, can not haz more subz.

I noted a goof with my LCT designations that may extend back to the beginning of 1945. In this report, at least, I initially cited the new unit as LCT-8.

However, I should be continuing the numbering of the class from after the initial run of nine LCVs built in the thirties. Thus the new quartet of units is LCT-10 through -13.
