Jercules (Axis) vs. ??? (Moscow in 5–can it be done?)

So I need you to allocate those three hits on sz97.

3.9_JvsW_01gITALY.AAM

[wheatbeer]

UK will damage the carrier and lose 1 fig, 1 cru

[wheatbeer]

Also, you can’t take a submarine as your casualty.  Both hits came from fighters and the UK had no destroyer.

[Jercules]

Oy vey. Italy loses a dd and a fighter, and retreats.
