wheres the swordfish?

[warphoenix]

are there even ships to sink in WWI arena? having the need to even need a swordfish?

its a Pre-war torpedo bomber for the brits in '39-'44(I think xD I do not know much about the fairy swordfish other than it had 1 machine gun, could carry a 2000lb torpedo, or 2000lbs of bombs, thats beyond the obvious bi-plane config. and the 3 seats)

The Swordfish sank more than the Avenger?  Wow.

No surprise, really.  Unlike the Avenger, the Swordfish was equipped with torpedoes that were actually functional.

correction: early model Avengers

  Yay Swordfish!

It would be fun to tinker with the Swordfish in the EW and SEA's, but otherwise they will be cannon fodder for %99 of the AH plane line up.  The Swordfish could probably beat the B5N, and that is it.

Actually the first round of torps that were dropped by the Swordfish crews attacking Bismark had faulty fuses and all failed to detonate.

The fact that they had been mistakenly fired at a British cruiser could be put down to pure luck, both that they didn't sink the British ship, and that the guys found out that the fuses were faulty before the main event.

I tried TB ing for a whole day. I eather got 5" or killed by ack. But managed to get 28 ship kills. 1 CV 4 CAs and rest DDs. If there was a torpedo bombing squad that I could join. That would be way more effective than 1 person. But nobody I know would really want to do that besides me. But I'm to lazy to create one.

[Ack-Ack]

ha..haha..ha thats funny it was W...W...2 not 1 only thing it would be for IF it was a ww1 plane would be sinking subs just off shore

Your lack of knowledge of anything related to planes is simply stunning and I already feel a loss of brain cells just reading one of your posts.  Please do us a favor and read something about these planes before you make another post.

     I'm just wondering what kind of fabric medium armor is? 

I'm trying to figure out how a plane that entered service with the Fleet Air Arm entered service in 1936 could be considered a "mid-war" airplane.

he didn't say mid-war did he? he said "medium ARMOUR"

[cooldued]

Yes I did and I was trying to say early and mid war.

You know what Ack-Ack I'm sick of this, if you want to bug me after I spell or say something wrong just DON'T! Ignore it don't read it, I don't care, just leave me alone. Get over it its not that big of a deal. can i just live with my dyslexia, instead of you telling me things that I have to cram in my head just to say it one time, then (if i do say it again) next time I say it I forget what you bugged me about, it would just start over. All I'm doing is standing up for my self.

this has nothing to do with your bad spelling, you make a post about a plane that is riddled with incorrect information and you're offended when you are corrected?  Here is a hint, or rather a smack upside your squeaker head with a clue stick....if you don't want people chiming in on one of your threads then 1) Don't post or 2) crack open a book and do some reading and actually learn something about the planes you claim to enjoy before making a post. 

Stop being a spoiled little squeaker.
