The Swordfish was a bi-plane with 2 guns (which sunk the Bismarck)

A Swordfish sank the Bismarck or its twin .303s did?

My naval history's a little rusty.

I always thought the Bismarck was lost to some British tar in a card game so he pulled the plug on it, one reason the Germans hated the English, for their card sharping.

Forget all those myths about the Home Fleet being led to the Bismarck by the Loch Ness Monster, that simply did not occur:  Nessie had a cold and her navigating was off, no, the Bismarck went down without a shot, scuttled over a poker debt.  Sad really, but good too in that it gave all the luft weenies another "if only . . ." to posture and pine over.

Tiger moth was a training aircraft

On the 25th the German ships separated, 'Prinz Eugen' temporarily vanishing in the Atlantic while 'Bismarck' ran for the shelter of Brest to remedy her fuel problem. Resighted by the British early on the 26th she was attacked that evening by Swordfish from the carrier 'Ark Royal' (of Force H, sent up from Gibraltar). 15 aircraft took off at 7.10 pm in atrocious weather. Three torpedoes hit, with one jamming 'Bismarck's' rudders over and condemning her to circle at no more than seven knots. About 8.45 am on the 27th, Admiral Sir John Tovey, commanding elements of the Home Fleet from the flagship 'King George V', and joined by the battleship 'Rodney', sighted the 'Bismarck' and opened fire. Despite being unmanoeuvrable 'Bismarck's' armament was unimpaired. Her first salvoes fell close to the 'Rodney' but neither British ship was hit. By 9.31 'Bismarck' was no longer firing and and by 10.15 she was a burning wreck. Short of fuel, Tovey then turned for home, ordering the cruiser 'Dorsetshire' to finish her off with torpedoes. A false U-boat sighting after 'Bismarck' sank at 10.39 curtailed the rescue of survivors in the water: only 110 plus the ship's cat were saved, a junior gunnery officer being the senior man (Burkhard von Mullenheim-Rechburg, much later an eminent diplomat and author of a fine survivor's account).

the gladiator was almost out of service when the war started in 1939, one improvment for AH2 could be the C-47 could have its real name the Douglas Dakota and be in its original RAF colours

So?  And the La-7 is the best free fighter here.  Its still not perked and its way, way better than the Ki-84.
