Mechanics
Torpedo Bombers
/
are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to do damage during the Airstrike, with their "Torpedo" 
stat being the most important factor in this regard. Torpedo Bombers are additionally needed for dealing damage during day Shelling, especially for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI).
- They can trigger Contact.
- They are vulnerable to shoot down during most Aerial Combat phases.
Notes
Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here).
