Well… what can i say…
- Features wing loading similar to Yak-9U, which is phenominal for a bomber making it highly agile.
- 12m/s climb is phenominal for a twin engine bomber [and thats with the bombs equipped]
- Ability to drop powerful 500kg bomb, and having two of them makes this plane very meta for Enlisted
- Twin 13.2mm Type 2 is extremely potent defensive armament to have in the rear since a single one already shreds (in War Thunder at least). They have very high rate of fire, very high velocity making them easy to hit and feature powerful HE ammunition.
- Decent Roll rate, making it easy to adjust its bombing run
- Very high maximum dive limit of 680km/h IAS, phenominal for a bomber.
- Features airbreak allowing it to be used as a dive bomber as well for extra precision and not worrying of crashing.
- Its controls do not stiffen at higher speeds
