I think torps are 2000lbs , if thats so, then 4 ......I'm pretty sure no matter what you hit it with, it better add up to 8000 lb. to kill it

But about the torpedoes, they hit under water, where the ship is at it's weakest, creating a big hole with water gushing in.

Wouldn't a torpedo of 2000lbs do MUCH more damage than a bomb of 2000 lbs?

Most ships can control their water intake to some extent with water tight chambers. If they get it under control quickly enough the ship may list but won't necessarily sink.

How many suicide 110s to kill a CV?

(Assuming heavy gun package, no bombs)

3 if they are decent shot.

2 if they are good, and don't get hit by manned 5".
