Description
The B6N1 Model 11 is a rank I Japanese bomber
with a battle rating of 1.7 (AB/RB) and 2.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update "Starfighters".
It is the sucsessor to the B5N, and if you liked the B5N2, you will LOVE the B6N! Simply put, the B6N is a faster, more well defended B5N, and it will prove useful in a combat situation.
General info
Flight performance
Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Survivability and armour
Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.
Armaments
Offensive armament
The B6N1 Model 11 is armed with:
- 1 x 7.7 mm Type 97 navy machine gun, -mounted (400 rpg)
Suspended armament
The B6N1 Model 11 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:
- 6 x 60 kg Navy Type 97 Number 6 bombs (360 kg total)
- 2 x 250 kg Navy Type Number 25 Model 2 bombs (500 kg total)
- 1 x 800 kg Navy Type Number 80 Model 1 bomb (800 kg total)
- 1 x 835 kg Type 91 Model 2 torpedo
- 1 x 850 kg Type 91 Model 3 torpedo
Defensive armament
The B6N1 Model 11 is defended by:
- 1 x 7.7 mm Type 92 machine gun, turret (679 rpg)
- 1 x 7.7 mm Type 92 machine gun, turret (679 rpg)
- Usage in battles Ammo Selection guide Bombs and Torpedoes:
- The 800kg bomb will destroy 1 base, it's a good pick for maps with few ground targets!
- The 250kg bombs are great for destroying pillboxes and tanks, but you can only have two of them. Make sure to use a slight dive when bombing and use the bombsight for increased accuracy!
- The 6x 60kg bombs are a great option for this plane. Since they weigh so little, you can be super accurate with these bombs, just aim the crosshair where you want the bomb to drop, and pull up. No need for a bomb sight!!! Use these bombs for light targets such as AAA, Vehicles, Armored Cars, Artillery, Howitzers, Machine Guns, and Bridges
- The torpedoes are not really useful for this plane in air battles, as ships only spawn in pacific maps, and this plane is at too low of a BR ton be put in a Pacific Theater battle. However, in Naval Battles, the TYPE 91 MOD 3 torpedo will wreck the enemy team, due to its high drops speed, accuracy, and speed in the water. This is a great pick for naval battles.

History
An excellent replacement for the Nakajima B5N in the role of on-board torpedo aircraft, the B6N Tenzan entered service very late, after more than two years of testing. Named JILL in the Allied code, this large single-engine plane appeared as a prototype in spring 1941. The first tests revealed serious steering stability problems. Subsequently, there were difficulties in developing the engine and the need to reinforce the landing gear. After 133 units of the first version of the B6N1 were built, the second production model began to be delivered towards the end of 1943. A total of 1,268 units were built.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
