At Midway, we were lucky with bombs.
Torpedos are the real ship sinkers.
The Yorktown was heavily damaged by aerial torpedos, and sunk by sub launched torpedos.
For the IJN torpedo bombers to hit a moving ship with bombs would much more difficult and dangerous than a torpedo attack. Plus, the bombs they loaded with were fused for surface bursts, damaging for ships, but not ship sinkers. A greater question is his course change to the NorthEast, and not West.
On Youtube, Montemayor has some excellent presentations on Midway, and some other actions.
Students, or others who have refought the battle are hampered, knowing too much or not enough, and will almost never get the same results.
