This is something that would definitely be cool to see added.  Airfields would basically be like CVs (and could be disabled too) only they could launch much larger aircraft such as heavy bombers and land-based fighters.  Airfields could be disabled by bombing the runway and hangars, however they can be repaired since they have DP.  When an airfield's DP reaches 0, the airfield is out of action for good.  Here are some planes that could be operated from each airfield, the nation depends (of course) on what nation the harbor is in.  Also, airfields would use pilots, so basically whoever gets control of the airfield (should be set before battle) gets to adjust their plane arrangement and what pilots they are using.

USN Fighters:
P-47 Thunderbolt (T4)
P-38 Lightning (T3) 
P-40 Warhawk (T2)
P-39 Aircobra (T1) 
USN Bombers:
B-29 Superfortress (T2)
B-17 Flying Fortress (T1)

RN Fighters: (I know a lot of these are ingame, but there were land-based versions of them)
Hawker Tempest (T4)
Supermarine Spitfire (T3)
Hawker Hurricane (T2)
Gloster Gladiator (T1)
RN Bombers:
Avro Lancaster (T2)
Handley Page Halifax (T1) 

KM Fighters: (again land-based versions)
Focke-Wulf Ta-152 (T4)
Focke-Wulf FW-190 (T3)
Messerschmitt Bf-109 (T2)
Arado 197 (T1)
KM Bombers:
Heinkel He111 (T2)
Junkers Ju88 (T1)

IJN Fighters:
Ki-84 (T4)
Ki-61 (T3)
Ki-43 (T2)
Ki-27 (T1)
IJN Bombers:
G4M Betty (T2)
Ki-21 (T1)

I like this. I want to see some better AI from the game so that theyre actually usable (unless it is, i havent seen ai planes in awhile) but i really like this. However id like to see the same system thats used for mines or production used, so people cants just start off on t4s. VERY good idea though, recc.

Don't really know enough about HA to comment on whether this is a good o bad idea, however just a suggestion. Rather than having the B-29 as the US T2 bomber, use the B-17, which is more equivalent to the other nations T2's. As a T1 you could use either the B-24 or 25, whichever would be better for balance reasons.

Theres already enough planes in the HT this would make every one freeze.

Besides This would make it nearly impossible to take a harbor away from a fleet that knows what there doing

You assume the aircraft from the airfield would have some actual intelligence which may not be the case.


Also... strategic bombers bombing ships? really?
The game shoould stick to dive bombers.

Recced but i'd rather see the harbor defend itself with some actual coastal guns instead.

I should have added that there would be a planespace limit. (goes up to 10,000 and fleet leader has to add it just like mines)

Long time ago (before I was ever involved in any HAs) believe there were coastal guns as well has AI controlled ships. From my understanding they performed less than....

How about replacing the Mustang with the Bearcat as the Tier 4 Carrier plane and move the Mustang to a harbour defense land airfield plane
