Fleet Air Arm torpedo and dive-bombing paper

How would the Air Ministry react to a 1929 Fleet Air Arm paper favoring torpedo and dive-bombing attacks?

It would likely resist the paper as naval self-advancement, showing how institutional control shaped British naval aviation doctrine.

British naval aviation still had divided parentage in 1929. If a paper favoring torpedo and dive bombing came from the naval observer side, the Air Ministry would probably dismiss it as naval self-aggrandizement. Its reception would depend on which branch produced it as well as on its tactical content. The counterfactual concerns institutional resistance to changing how the Fleet Air Arm attacked ships.
