Of course we will check the FM of this aircraft.

I found the torpedo information at Wikipedia

"The Airone saw more than 20 years of service. [6] The Z.506B was first used as a reconnaissance aircraft and torpedo bomber in the Spanish Civil War.On the evening of 17 June, four 506Bs from 31° Stormo attacked targets in Northern French Africa, each dropping two 250 kg and three 100 kg bombs.[8] The type also took part in the Battle of Calabria. In the war against Greece it was used against coastal targets and the Corinth canal.

I see the torpedos were only used pre-WWII.
