IJN bomber have 7.7mm MGs with lower accuracy than IJA bombers, so any bomber-ace should be hiding in the IJA pilot ranks.

What do you think about Peggy (T).

Torpedo attacks are far better at sinking ships than bombs. I can envision a situation where an Allied crippled capital ship is attempting to escape and I have a group or two of these in the neighborhood that may prevent that. Remember every plane can fill a roll in the game. Will I build hundreds of these, no, but there will probably be some lurking about. As to their research, we'll see.

Night torpedo attacks is pretty much the only thing that can stress out Allies from the air in the final stages of the game no matter CAP. Massed kamikaze onslaught is another but it is very costly one-time thing

Night torpedo attacks are also much easier on the aircraft and has increased aircrew survivability. [;)] AAA is reduced at night. You also don't have to worry about escorts so more fighters are available for defensive CAP.

Has anyone EVER had a Japanese bomber shoot down anything? I haven't, and I've been playing this game for a long time.

I have had the Betty that has a bunch of 20mm guns shoot down some fighters late in the game. Emily can do it too.
