Yea AD-4 looks awesome - actually everything in that “folder” does. I am baffled that one of the aircraft in that folder can carry 3 torps.
IL-2 so biased, Gaijin made a whole game about it! (Jo MaMa joke).

3 Torps only to get shot down 9km from 20mm from a DD.

Yea I’ve heard that torpedo bombing get harder and harder the higher (in rank) you go. That’s saying something seeing as it’s near impossible at rank 1.

Blackburn Firebrand is peak strike aircraft, fun to fly, can dogfight, has a good payload, at a low enough BR (It’s ok in ARB but in ASB it’s amazing)

The IL-8. It’s as overpowered as noob Russia and Germany mains claim American CAS is.
As for TT planes, the Yak-9K. It’s also just hilariously OP
SBD and F6F-5
Did you ever buy the Wyvern? Looks amazing but it’s not my first choice for premium vehicles.
I have it, but only for a naval Dive bomber/torp bomber, its good, but I dont use it much

Yea, although the F6F is technically a “figher” - let’s face it , when equipped with ordinance it’s an amazing strike aircraft.
“torpedo bomber” XD

Aircraft CBT? AYO?
below 3.0 Ju-87 (any except G versions) - SC 1000
above 3.0: P-47/ F6F both with 1000lb bombe
best overall and Most versatile: Fw-190F8 (I still hope for a Hungarian one in the Ita tree and a Captured one for the UK tree)
I played the french tech tree one tho, but yes it’s awesome
Ki-109
Big gun go boom
Hs 129 B-2 Ente. Most beautiful aircraft. Good armor, ok flight (C and D series would have had far more powerfull engines, Jumo 211 and BMW 801) and Mk 103 goes bambambambam.
A-1H from the “Smell of Victory” Battle Pass:
Compared to the regular tech tree AD-2/AD-4 Skyraiders, this upgraded variant gets access to more modern ordinance. Including Zuni rockets, Snakeye bombs and multiple 7.62mm M134 gatling gunpods with 4000 RPM each to flex on WW2 era vehicles at 6.3 BR.
Without loadout weight, the A-1H’s long, straight wings also help it dogfight or do tight circle maneuvers against other aircraft. You can use this to surprise other players who think you are an easy kill.
Keep in mind, though, the A-1H won’t outturn ALL aircraft, (Ex: Spitfire or Zero) or do well against more faster aircraft that bring the combat vertical to bleed away your energy.
You also have flares and chaff useful in uptiers (in the case you bring it to higher combined ground BR lineups, or if an aircraft with air-to-air missiles faces you.
It also comes with a meme toilet bomb weapon that you can use to quite literally, drop some dookie on your enemies:

My favorite CAS plane is the Ki-102 Otsu. I love to quietly approach vehicles with the open roof… boom the 57mm cannon turns them into burning wrecks. (it’s a shame the Ki-102 Otsu doesn’t have historical armament)
