Submerged model firing AA

[DCG]

I have checked through the FAQ and haven't been able to find an answer to this, although I may have missed it?!

 

A submerged model attacked by TFT or Rockets - does it get the option of firing self defence AA? 

 

I found reference in the FAQ to pg 56 that states a submerged model can only target a model with torpedoes or concussion charges however I wasn't sure if this meant a submerged model can not target rockets and TFT in self defence (as TFT and rockets are not models is the preceding sentence relevant to the situation?)..  am I missing something? 

 

In the following paragraphs re declaring counter attacks (pg56) and defensive actions (pg57) it simply states all models in a squadron may fire... etc there don't seem to be any limitations on who or what can fire!?

 

again apologies if this has been covered and missed the answer.

This came up in our recent tournament. As I couldn't find a rule in the book I allowed AA to counter the attack.

Rules as written:

 There is nothing to stop a Submerged model using AA for defensive fire against rockets

 

However, I'm 99% certain it is an unintended oversight. In  version 2 it will not be possible.

That would make sense... Especially considering that the kob submarine (vengeance) has the aa concealed in its submerged mode.

Thanks for the response!
