Units in Fight for Freedom #5

The screaming Stuka remains one of the most recognizable images of the Second World War. They were as much of a sensation at the time - faced with the enemy dive bombers, the British immediately wanted their own.

American-made A-31 Vengeance had all the weaknesses of a dive bomber - a dire need for a fighter escort, and a reliance on local air superiority - but made up for them by being rugged, dependable and, according to some accounts, simply “a lovely aircraft to fly”. They did not fare well in the battle of Britain, but won their glory in Burma, where, safe from overwhelming flak fire, Vengeances were used to conduct numerous bombing raids on the Japanese supply lines and military infrastructure.

A-31 Vengeance Mk. I was the first model ordered, with the initial order of 200. A-31 Vengeance Mk. II had only minor differences, while A-35B Vengeance Mk. IV boasted a more powerful engine, and an increased bomb load.

The Vengeance series will be the only Dive bombers available in the UK campaign. Unlike ordinary Tactical bombers, Dive bombers deal mostly Lethal damage, not allowing the enemy to restore wounded at the end of its turn. Thus, it is more effective if you want to deal permanent damage to the enemy troops. Although, other bombers that deal mostly Nonlethal damage, could be better for making the enemy surrender and taking prisoners, instead of outright annihilating the enemy troops.
