The first attacks by German torpedo bombers in WWII took place in the fall of 1941. They attacked a British convoy, and during the attack, the planes sank two transports, “Remuera” and “Sage York”. In the future, torpedo bombers were noted in different theaters of military operations, from the Arctic to the Black Sea. The targets of their attacks were both warships and transport ships. Aircraft torpedoes were a powerful weapon; the naval history of WWII has many cases of their successful combat use. A successful torpedo attack was often the verdict for both the transport ship and the battleship.
