Hornet doesn't have that. She's more centered around her B-25 gimmick and her regular planes are more limited in what targets they are useful against. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AP bombs are useless against DDs and BBs with high armor Wargaming should make it so you can pick between AP and HE with DB planes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaga also does well becausse you hit for 14-17k with four torpedoes against any target, which means you can mop the deck on cruisers and BBs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hornet's torps hit like wet tissue. I've put two of them into a DD and not even knocked it to half health. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
