Ever since I got the Atlanta and recently got the Cleveland, there is no Special Ability for my anti-aircraft.  Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?  I know other players in their cruiser have it because they use in on my aircraft.

Because WG considers killing DD's more important than shooting down planes.  All of a sudden manual dropping makes sense, in a perverted way.

As above.  Why the Hydro Acoustic thing is the default rather than the defensive AA is what I don't understand.  Each time I've bought a new cruiser, I keep forgetting to switch out the hydro.

switch your hydro scanner consumable to AA consumable

This...and, say....

There's an option to switch Hydroacoustic Search with the AA consumable.

This as well.

Haha, I never knew this. I thought they got rid of the AA consumable for the sonar. I guess I'll actually prefer the sonar as I find DDs are way more dangerous than the bombers.

The want you to use this rather useless feature.  When the community rejected it they added to the lower tier boats.

Go into port then modules and switch out the sonar.

I find it funny that Sonar is used to detect ships in WoWS.  Because subs don't exist.  Because Radar doesn't exist.  And that ship crews are as blind as a crippled bat.

the IJN dd are basically submarine in this game.

 

Air cover basically make the sonar redundant. If the CV isn't busy sinking the entire fleet, he's busy ruining dd's day.

Funny, air cover also renders actual submarines useless.
