Effective damage
Damage output from near-misses is very comparable to the Type 98 Number 25, but if the bomb manages to penetrate inside the vessel, it typically does a guaranteed kill, or a crippling damage to even the largest battleships.
Comparison with analogues
There are very, very few heavy armour-piercing bombs available, making it difficult to make a fair comparison, as most nations lack any bombs that could be thought of as an analogue. Still, among those few peers that exist, the Type 3 Number 150 has rather small explosive filler and a low penetration, being grossly outmatched by the German counterpart.

History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main
template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />
.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
