Considering the Tempest us also 1944, I say it's fine. Honestly, overall while it's not as powerful as it's American cousin at attacking BB, it's more powerful overall due to its flexibility...
The TBF Avenger is just broken. It screws air up the way the Hagaro does ijn cruisers. 43 is not going to be the end of the world for gameplay, just the nomaclenture shuffles again
Nah, I'm fine with this one being 1944. The reason I said the Tempest us that in 1944, the UKnwould get their high end fighters and high end bomber... im just happy to get them...

The Royal Navy standardised aircraft naming with the United States navy. Which the Tarpon renamed to Avenger as the aircraft began to see frontline service on British carriers. Used in support of raids against the Tirpitz in norway and Far East. Fleet Air Arm Avengers launched the longest ranged strike by that force of the war to attack the heavy cruiser Haguro on may 14 1945. Damaging the cruiser for loss of 1 aircraft. Allowing Allied destroyers to corner and destroy the cruiser tje next night. Hagaro was the last major japanese loss outside home waters.
