should I AP or Keep using my HE shield on my IJN T1 bomber?

Now days there are alot of BB5-6 in GB2 and i always do around 40k atk, but do only around
4-5k actual dmg on the BBs.

So what should I do?

Thanks

HE is the way to go...cause if you want to sink the cv's then ap wont do anything...prob
get like 3-5k but in he u can prob sink it

Use HEs. Generally avoid bombing QVs and 2 turret L2s, problem solved. Ofc, if you don't
want to win and want to just XP farm/leech, bomb the L2s and QVs cause UK BBs generally
don't carry AA.

AP bombs are kinda useless (unless they implement a secondary bomb locker).

Ships AWed enough to bounce bombs are far in between.

To be honest since CV1 up to CV4 i have met only one bomb deflecting BB (Lion II)
9 bombs in the deck gave ma about 6k-7k attack (it would be over 25k on a "normal" BB).
Ships like that however are so rare that you are better off just using HE.

agree, but i add that He bombs on Armor whored decks, get a big penalty to damage
(like 40% less damage sometimes)

HE bomb

They do more damage. Usually, deck isn't enough to bounce db. Unless, you were unlucky and
got a bug occured.
