The B6N Jill is the standard carrier-borne torpedo bomber for the Imperial Japanese Navy, replacing the old B5N Kate torpedo bombers. These planes are an upgrade over the Kates, with a larger, more powerful engine and longer range while still being capable of carrying the same torpedo or bomb load. Armor is only marginally upgraded, so the Jill is still vulnerable to AA fire and enemy fighters. Counterpart to the TBF Avenger of the US Navy, this plane has a slight edge over the Avenger in terms of top speed and maneuverability.
