Moving the Vengeance bombers south proved fruitful; the Kiso and Juntsu were spotted off the coast of Akyab, India and attacked by both the Vengeances and Beaufighters out of Calcutta. The 14 dive bombers scored 7 hits on the Kiso (a mix of 500 and 250 lb SAPs, each bomber carries 2 of each), leaving the ship mortally wounded. The Beaufighters failed to score any bomb hits, but hit the Juntsu with enough 20mm cannon fire to start a fire.
