Introduction

「九九艦爆」の後継として開発された高速性能を誇る水冷エンジンの艦上爆撃機「彗星」。
彗星艦爆一二型甲は、エンジンをより強力なアツタ三二型に換装。
そして後部機銃も13mmに火力強化しました。
機動力と防御火力を向上させた本機で、あの有名な芙蓉部隊ばりの奮戦を!

The high-speed-high-performance successor of the "Type 99 Bomber", boasting a liquid-cooled engine, the "Suisei".
The Suisei Model 12A is retrofitted with a more powerful Atsuta Type 32 engine.
Its rear machine gun has also been upgraded to a 13 mm caliber.
With this machine's better agility and self-defense, it fought bravely in the Imperial Navy Air Groups!

Mechanics

Dive 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 "Dive Bombing"   stat being the most important factor in this regard. Dive Bombers are additionally needed for dealing damage during day Shelling, especially for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI).

Notes

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