Their main targets should be battleships and cruisers. While weaker, they are still a good and reliable source of damage when other squadron types are unavailable as thy still drop the same number of torpedoes as Lexington. However, much like the rest of Enterprise's squadrons, they have an improved regeneration rate of 60 seconds per aircraft compared to Lexington's 80 seconds. The torpedoes themselves are identical to Lexington's but the planes utilized are Lexington's stock torpedo aircraft, meaning that they are inferior in terms of speed and hp pools. The lower hp is compensated for by a lightning fast regeneration time of 49 seconds per aircraft compared to 66 seconds on Lexington.Įnterprise's torpedo bombers follow much of the same trend of other American torpedo bombers, slow but with decent hp pools, with the torpedoes themselves having average damage paired with relatively low arming distance and speed. This lowered penetration limits their usefulness against battleships of the same tier, making cruisers and destroyers their primary targets. Perhaps more critically, they are armed with 127mm FFARs rather than the HVARs on Lexington's upgraded attack squadrons, meaning they can only penetrate 27mm of armor plating compared to the 33mm the HVARs can penetrate.
However, the squadron is comprised of Lexington's stock attack aircraft, meaning that they are slightly slower and have less hp than Lexington's. It boasts one more attack flight per squad than Lexington for a total of 12 aircraft per squad. One of the hallmarks of Enterprise's aviation wing is her unique attack aircraft squadron. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".Įnterprise is one of the strongest Tier VIII aircraft carriers in the game, capable of outputting high amounts of damage on cruisers and battleships with her AP dive bombers and torpedo bombers, bullying destroyers with her large squadrons of attack aircraft, while also maintaining good vision control and air superiority with her large patrol squadrons.
