-While ''technically'' a bomber and getting a bomber airspawn, it is more apt as a bomber-interceptor. Players can often find themselves able to get to enemy bombers far before friendly interceptors and air defense fighters, such as P-38s, XP-50s, P-61s, or Whirlwinds are able to get to altitude. What a player can do to dispatch of an enemy bomber is up to them; the 20mm MG 151s can adequately dispatch of enemy bombers, but players can also use the HVARs to great (and comedic) effect against bombers. The velocity of the HVARs is rather low, so a player that is unexperienced in how to aim them properly might have an issue at longer ranges, getting in close raises the chances of hitting.

-Once the bomber threats have been neutralized, pilots often find themselves above or at the same height as enemy fighters, but the M.B.175T is no slouch. While the positioning of the offensive 20mm MG151s are unfortunate, the M.B.175T is blessed with a defensive 20mm MG 151 which can be used to devastating effect. Pilots should chose to work from the top down, focusing on the fighters that are closest relative to the pilot's height. A tactic that can work is to bait them into stalling for what they might think is an easy shot, then using the M.B.175Ts deceptively good turning ability to pounce on a stalled enemy.

-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' was an adaptation of the  Bloch MB.170 for naval purposes. After WWII, France had to use any aircraft to its disposal to rearm their air force, and the '''{{Specs|name}}''', the most important upgrade, was the introduction of a single F5W torpedo, which, paired with the aircrafts long range, made it suitable for maritime patrol. The aircraft was retired in 1950 with the introduction of more modern fighter-bombers like the F6F.

-It was introduced in [[Update 1.83 "Masters of the Sea"]]. Although called a "bomber", with its hard-hitting armament of two 20mm [[MG 151/20 (20 mm)|MG 151/20]] cannons, this plane should be used in a more aggressive role as an attacker, or even a bomber interceptor. The HVAR rockets and the MG 151/20s make it a perfect counter to the much-feared [[BV 238]]. Meanwhile, for naval battles, having access to an F5W torpedo gives you the chance to destroy a single ship with a good launch, however the aircraft's large size makes it easy for enemy AA to target you and shoot you down.
