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).

Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here).
