主题：“最光辉的时刻” ：不列颠战役 -- PBS

到底是鱼雷攻击效果好，还是俯冲轰炸效果好，这个要看具体的目标类型，如果是驱逐舰以下的轻型舰艇，由于防护较为薄弱，无论是鱼雷攻击，还是俯冲轰炸，都有可能造成严重伤害，具体分析的话，俯冲轰炸威胁更甚，轻型舰艇机动较为灵活，易于规避鱼雷，此时俯冲轰炸的命中率优势就会得到体现。如果是对巡洋舰、战列舰一类具有较强防护能力的舰船而言，鱼雷攻击的效果较俯冲轰炸更致命，正如上文提到的，受到炸弹当量和低空投弹的影响，俯冲轰炸对于装甲目标的杀伤力略显不足，很可能上层建筑被炸烂，而动力系统保持完好，目标依然可能脱离战场返航，因此鱼雷攻击造成的水下损伤对于舰船就更为可怕，直接影响航行能力，而舰船失去机动能力是非常致命的。对于航空母舰而言，俯冲轰炸的威胁更大，因为炸弹直接破坏飞行甲板，导致舰载机无法起降，也就等于剥夺了航母的作战能力，如果再引爆机库内的弹药和燃油，就会造成更大范围的连带伤害，中途岛海战中日军航母的下场就是最佳例证。不过，在实战中，通常情况下两种攻击手段同时实施的效果最佳，尤其是对战列舰，二战时期毁于航空兵之手的战列舰大多都同时遭受炸弹和鱼雷的攻击，“大和”、“武藏”、“威尔士亲王”号都是如此。

当甲板上层建筑被毁包括舰炮，也剥夺了战列舰巡洋舰的战斗力，军舰也失去战斗力了，至于击沉已经不是重要的因素了。

Shortly before 08:00 local time on 7 December 1941, Japanese aircraft from six aircraft carriers struck the Pacific Fleet as it lay in port at Pearl Harbor, and wrought devastation on the warships and installations defending Hawaii. On board Arizona, the ship's air raid alarm went off at about 07:55, and the ship went to general quarters soon after. Shortly after 08:00, 10 Nakajima B5N "Kate" torpedo bombers, five each from the carriers Kaga and Hiryū, attacked Arizona.

All of the aircraft were carrying 406-millimeter (16.0 in) armor-piercing shells modified into 797-kilogram (1,757 lb) bombs. Flying at an estimated altitude of 3,000 meters (9,800 ft), Kaga's aircraft bombed Arizona from amidships to stern. Soon after, Hiryu's bombers hit the bow area.

The aircraft scored four hits and three near misses on and around Arizona. The near miss off the port bow is thought to have caused observers to believe that the ship had been torpedoed, although no torpedo damage has been found. The sternmost bomb ricocheted off the face of Turret IV and penetrated the deck to detonate in the captain's pantry, causing a small fire. The next forwardmost hit was near the port edge of the ship, abreast the mainmast, probably detonating in the area of the anti-torpedo bulkhead. The next bomb struck near the port rear 5-inch AA gun.

Magazine explosion

Arizona's forward magazines explode in a still from a film made during the attack.

The last bomb hit at 08:06 in the vicinity of Turret II, likely penetrating the armored deck near the ammunition magazines located in the forward section of the ship.
