Can carrier fighters fight enemy airships?

[brygun]

Having a 1925 mixed warfare moment where my carrier torpedo planes and fighters are joining my surface shoots already shooting their surface ships when seven enemy zepplin airships have come in on a naval strike.

Yeah... war is fun.


So....

Could my fighters shoot down or disrupt these airships?

Yes. They have a little more than double the toughness and firepower of a typical 20s PB or MB, but they're roughly half as fast.

If your fighters do tangle with them, please keep us updated on the results! It could even get more interesting if they have parasite fighters. That could actually be a fun thread; a competition for who can have the earliest naval strike complete with defending CAP and escorting fighters.
