For purposes of the game, compared to a GP bomb of the same weight the new bombs do the following:
HC or LC bombs do 75% damage on a direct hit and have 125% of the blast radius. [think more TNT but less shrapnel]
SAP bombs do 125% damage on direct hits and have 33% of the blast radius. [think less TNT but harder shell = more penetration before detonation]
AP bombs do 150% damage on direct hits and have 20% of the blast radius. [think even harder shell and even less TNT before detonation]
So in other words:
The AP/SAP are better for taking out single OBJ like the shore battery and hangers. The HC/LC bombs are better for creating large swaths of destroyed buildings in the towns and factories where the OBJ's are have a 312 lb hardness.

In case if anyone is looking for a "new again old plane", the SDB now is able to carry a 1600 lb AP bomb and the B5N a 800kg AP bomb. Do the math and you'll see that a pair of them are able to destroy a shore battery.

Talk about new life for an original AH model!

I think this will be be a good thing.

I'm surprised that the 190F-8 did not get new ordnance, I'd figure it would get the 500kg SAP. Speaking of which, I'm hoping the 190F-8 gets the 8/50kg option sometime soon!
