Survivability and armour
- 38 mm Bulletproof glass in front of pilot.
- 11.11 mm Steel plate behind pilot.
- 8.5 mm Steel plate underneath the engine.
- 6.35 mm Steel plate on top of fuselage in front of cockpit.
- 6.35 mm Steel plate on dorsal turret gun.
Armaments

The SB2C-5 (France) is armed with:
- 2 x 20 mm AN/M2 cannons, wing-mounted (200 RPG = 400 total)
The two cannons are arranged with one in each wing. Each are armed with the same amount of ammunition, which means that all guns will fire with each other until empty.

- 1 x Mk.13 torpedo
- 1 x Mk.13/44 torpedo

- 4 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs (2,000 lb total)
- 1 x 1000 lb AN-M65A1 bombs (1,000 lb total)
- 2 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs + 1 x 1000 lb AN-M65A1 bomb (2,000 lb total)
- 8 x 127 mm HVAR rockets
- 4 х 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine guns, suspended (340 rpg = 1360 total)
Defensive armament
The SB2C-5 (France) is defended by:
- 2 x 7.62 mm Browning machine gun, dorsal turret (2,000 RPG = 4,000 total)
Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in an aircraft, the features of using vehicles in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons
Summarize and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === Encyclopedia Info ===, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
See also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the series of the aircraft;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
External links
Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:
- topic on the official game forum;
- encyclopedia page on the aircraft;
- other literature.
