		The development of large strategic bombers stagnated in the later part of the Cold War both because of spiraling costs and the advent of the intercontinental ballistic missile, which was felt to have equal deterrent value while being much more difficult to intercept.
		Perhaps the one meaningful distinction at present is the question of range: a bomber is generally a long-range aircraft capable of striking targets deep within enemy territory, whereas fighter bombers and attack aircraft are limited to 'theater' missions in and around the immediate area of battlefield combat.
		Strategic bombers are primarily designed for long-range strike missions against strategic targets such as supply bases, bridges, factories, and shipyards.

	SB2C Helldiver
		Designed in response to a 1938 U.S. navy spec for a dive bomber, to replace the original SBC biplane, also known as "Helldiver," the SB2C was built around the Wright R-2600-8 engine.
		The dive bombers start from about 12000 feet and dove straight down, the torpedo planes came in lower and the fighters strafed.
		Captain "Jocko" Clark was so hardcore in his resistance that he refused to equip his bomber squadron with the SB2C, and stuck with the older SBD.

		(b) During the same afternoon, a formation of Avenger (Grumman TBF) torpedo bombers and Dauntless dive bombers attacked Japanese defensive positions and camp sections at Vila, Kolombangara Island.
		Planes of "Carrier B," by the speed and teamwork of their attacks, working in close harmony with U. destroyers and anti-subsurface craft, chalked up the remarkable record, according to preliminary estimates, of two "certain kills" (prisoners were taken), four "very probably kills," and four "probable kills" in attacks on a total of 11 submarines.

	! The Grumman Avenger TBF & TBM WWII US Navy Torpedo bomber.
		Indeed, at first sight the Avenger could well have been a scaled-up Wildcat, but the resemblance had to be confined to external contour owing to its sheer size and r6le, and I hardly expected this torpedo-bomber to offer in the air any of the exhilaration that I had experienced with its smaller stablemate.
		Despite this sad beginning, the Avenger was destined to become the Navy's standard torpedo-bomber throughout World War II and to remain in operational Fleet service in a variety of roles until 1954.

	=69.GIAP=: Level, Dive & Torpedo Bomber Aircraft
		If in a mission you are not flying a torpedo carrying aircraft, but your mission is to attack shipping with bombs or rockets, no matter what aircraft you are flying, you will be credited with a bomber sortie if you survive the mission, and are not captured.
		So, instead, when the player uses an aircraft armed with a torpedo, they will claim a Bomber Sortie mark for their badge (so long as they make it back to base, or avoid capture and death).
		Because ships in Forgotten Battles/Pacific Fighters require in some cases up to 8 or 9 torpedoes to sink them, it is not entirely fair for the last person who sees the "enemy ship destroyed" message, to receive the large amount of points that come with this kill.

	NZFPM - Former Aircraft - Grumman TBM3E Avenger
		Originally designed as torpedo bombers, they were used by the RNZAF as dive bombers by Nos.
		Chief torpedo-bomber of the Pacific War in 1942-45, the Avenger typifies carrier-based aircraft produced by Grumman- featuring generous wings, amiable handling and such strength that the company was colloquially known as "The Iron Works".
		In all, 48 Avengers were allocated to the RNZAF, but before the war ended over half of these were handed over to either the US Navy or the Royal Navy's Pacific Fleet, both of which were suffering from aircraft shortages.

		One of the reasons that the torpedo bomber has suffered is because the local dive boats have inadvertently hit it with their anchors.
