Well, two battles by my count, SZ 97 and Burma. However, I would not have attacked Burma! The risk for CDF was just too high! (Cascade Dice Failure). First you had to get past 6 AA Gun shots, figured at least one plane gone there, then there were 10 cannon fodder pieces before you got to the Chinese fighter. But you got the fighter…not sure if you wanted to pay such a high price for it! (You got India too, again, not sure if the price was worth it.)
