Nakajima B5N2 Kate Type 97-3 Carrier Attack Aircraft

The Nakajima B5N (Japanese: 中島 B5N, Allied reporting name "Kate") was the standard carrier-based torpedo bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) for much of World War II.

Although the B5N was substantially faster and more capable than its Allied counterparts, the American Douglas TBD Devastator monoplane (the U.S. Navy's first all-metal, carrier-borne monoplane of any type with retracting gear), and the British Fairey Swordfish and Fairey Albacore torpedo biplanes, it was nearing obsolescence by 1941. Nevertheless, the B5N operated throughout the whole war, due to the delayed development of its successor, the B6N. In the early part of the Pacific War, flown by well-trained IJN aircrews and as part of well-coordinated attacks, the B5N achieved particular successes at the battles of Pearl Harbor, Coral Sea, Midway, and Santa Cruz Islands.

this plane is still WIP, there might be something can't work functionally, if you find any bug please let me know :D

...updates:

reworked on body shape, engine, performance and weapons

I know that the B5N2 models were never equipped with machine guns in the wings, but I feel like its kinda unsafe to fly around with a plane that only got 1 gun when there's DLC Jet and helicopter chasing you out of nowhere, so yea I think I will keep them

recommended to drop torpedo at a height above 35
