I actually think the US BB should start in SZ26 to give an incentive to this attack which was historically accurate too. Perhaps the cruiser too, but both of those take balance in the wrong direction.

Australia attacks the sz around Java with a navy including AC and also attack Java itself with amphibious assault. They win the battle and the AC is damaged. However, a plane that is attacking Java territory was depending on it to land. What happens to this plane?

Rulebook Pacific 1940.2, page 21, Noncombat Move Phase:
“Stranded defending air units also land during this phase.
These are carrier air units whose aircraft carrier has been
damaged or destroyed in combat … . These units
are allowed movement of up to one space to find a friendly
territory or carrier on which to land. If no landing space can
be found, they are lost. This movement occurs before the
acting player makes any noncombat movements.” -
