I think that it seems strange to you due a translation concindence, you see…
In italian bomba means only bomb, in spanish bomba could mean also pump, so motobomba isn’t motorpump but only motorbomb.

I love the idea! Lots of possibilities with this one. The fact that it becomes a mine after its run is especially cool. +1

There would be a learning curve to master this torpedo.

very interesting, so the MOTOBOMBA FFF was carried also by other german planes than the ju-88, but we need to know their loadouts configurations with this weapon

Just as well it is Italian, then, and not Spanish.

Pattern running torpedoes have been suggested before over the years - no doubt some day they will be in game.

thank you very much

if you want to see the mighty MOTOBOMBA FFF in person, you can visit the Museum of Vigna di Valle that’s the home of an incredible correction of aircrafts and weapons.
Remember, support the MOTOBOMBA FFF the only ww2 parachutable torpedo!

Its a funny looking thing. I don’t think it can take out an Iowa Class Battleship but air dropped weapons like the mighty MOTOBOMBA would help. It would give Italy basically a stand off weapon so you don’t need to get into AA range.

Why not? Does that tin can have a shield generator?

No excuse to not be included, with the Russian parachute bomb coming this update the technology is there. All the devs would have to do is make a the torpedo go in circles which shouldn’t be hard.

Other than that, this torpedo is much needed for Italy. There is no tech tree torpedo carrier except the bombers which will immidiately get shot down if trying to use with torpedos. This could be a great addition to give those bombers and actual use in naval and not just be targets

I think that the MOTOBOMBA FFF will shine particularly in the enduring confrontations, where with the much needed SM 82 you could carry 8 of them.
Immagine to play in a plotoon with other friends…you’ll have 4x sm 82 for a total of 32 MOTOBOMBA FFF (every 40 seconds if it’s the arcade mode of the enduring confrontations), you could create basically giant minefields ^^
so yes, a single MOTOBOMBA FFF can’t cripple the mighty Iowa but if the battleship finds itself in the middle of x32 MOTOBOMBA FFF hunting ground I thing that also the giant could fall to the little but numerous and explosive mice.

one thing is for sure, with the first 20 orders you’ll have the bomb’s camouflage unlocked and the MOTOBOMBA FFF shaped arbre magique (wonder tree air fresher) for your car ^___^

Behold! I’ve found recently an interesting scheme depicting the internal details of the MOTOBOMBA FFF from the U.S. War Department publication “Tactical and Technical Trends”.
