The Jeep carriers were used allot in Korea. Mostly with Corsairs. To my knowledge, jets were never qualified aboard a Jeep. The Sicily CVE 118 was there for most of the war.
My bad I was trying to remember the Model name from heart. The CVL is the one I am talking about.
I know its longer than a CVE but the point is to be able to launch Corsairs in IL-2 with Napalm and Rockets. In IL-2 even with the Cat, that extra length and speed is needed. The point is to possible get a copy of a CVL painted up like CVE-116 the Badoeng Strait.
