Introduction

遂に飛行隊を預かることになった「ゼロファイターゴッド」岩井隊長率いる、「零式艦上戦闘機62型」装備の爆戦隊です。
整備の行き届いた「62型」を駆り、高機動戦闘爆撃機として敵艦に爆弾を叩き付け、しかるのち制空戦闘に参加します。

The last command of Lt. Iwai, the "Zero Fighter God", a bombing squadron equipped with "Type 62 Zero Fighter-bombers".
Equipped with "Type 62s", the quick-response fighter-bomber squadron that can bomb enemy ships and participate in taking air superiority.

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).

"Fighter-Bombers" are "Dive Bombers", both behaving the exact same way, with the only notable difference being the Improvement effects given by  .

Night Aircraft are planes that contribute to Carrier Night Air Attack damage.

This plane has strong Anti-Air Resistance.
