Are these available for any craft in CLOD?

The He-115B-2 can carry a torpedo in its front bomb bay. There is only the Schwarzkopf_F5 torpedo type coded in-game at the moment.

Not really, the bulk of the BOB was the air war, given that the list of flyables for that part is still lacking and theres no plans for more ships then a torpedo bomber is highly unlikely, theres no firm news on what SDK's might bring, apparently just a mapping one initially....great...we'll get some shiny new maps but won't have the right aircraft for theatre, then theres a debate over how open the moddability of the game should be, some believe open modding will end up in cheating (I'm sure that can be combated)

Ju-88 didn't before 1941 with the A-4 I think, were there any torpedo HE-111's in the BOB?

The Ju 88 wasn't used as torpedo aircraft before 1942 and the He 111 was used from 1941 on, not before. Before experiments with torpedo missions were frowned upon by OKL. Another case of "Why bother? We'll have won this war soon, anyway." :rolleyes:
