User blog:Leader1623/Best singled engined bombers of WWII

So anywhere you go you'll have a lot of discussions on what the best fighter of WWII was, or the best tanks was, etc. Recently we've even had a worst heavy cruiser of WWII discussion.

I haven't seen many discussions on single-engined ground-attack craft of WWII though (no twin engines. Not just strictly bomb-armed), so I decided to start a discussion on this. These aircraft could be argued to be among the most important aircraft of WWII, with planes like the Stuka gaining widespread fame, and some fighters like the Thunderbolt becoming successful in this role too. It's not very surprising actually since there weren't helicopter gunships to fill the CAS role back then, so single engined aircraft with 1-3 bombs strapped to their wings, or later, several air-to-ground rockets, supported ground forces instead.

To make things more interesting, let's include torpedo bombers, and pick a winner for each of 2 categories.

1. Ground-attack craft (all fronts) 2. Naval bomber (all fronts)

Pick your candidate and present your arguement why.
