Depends what one prefers. They both model a Fido well, with slightly different approaches. I prefer Stiebler's for it's simplicity. I've never tried Rubini's as I'm not interested in eye candy for a Fido attack but others like it for that reason. Since I've never tried it, I do not know how stable Rubini's mod is. Maybe someone else can answer that.

But something come to me, steibler didn't mentioned something like a roster link, so is possible that a British or a catalina pyb plane drop the torpedo?

The Avenger and Liberator dropped them historically. I believe (without looking) only the Avenger does in NYGM, and that is only the Avenger version supplied with his patch. If I recall, originally many more planes could drop it because of the way the patch worked but I believe he then changed things so only the Avenger does, but I'd have to look to be sure.

The Avenger was the only one as far as I know but I've not researched it.

Why not combine both modes using .RND of one and FIDO of the other of the mods.

Give it a try. May have to do some roster work too, not sure. But as said, I believe they tried to combine them and it didn't work for some reason(s).

adding fido to equipment of avenger with im not sure a libre file needed to run fido (im not sure if it need one but need a check) could be enought, getting in liberator sounds easy but in game you have like 20 times the avenger entries, so should be many many fido in water and this is a bit concerning, balance that is a bit complex, for liberator shoud be fine add another plane with his own entries and equip. you could have a port bomber with fido... if scr uses in ports bombs. thats a balance conserning to by focus, its like mad catalina, you couldnt fill airbases with madcatalinas, it makes a mess. i dont know how works adding equipments (triplicate actual load entries,) also could reduce the amount of palnes with fido. This is interesting feature!

I want to remind you that ATB_Avenger_TB is located only in America.

I don't think Americans shared technology.
Consolidated B-24 Liberator & PBY Catalina armed and had successful attacks of the German U-boat. https://uboat.net/allies/technical/fido.htm

Un the text they that Canada and uk used it and by the number it was like the half of times.
For example there's a liberator fur naval pair in us roster in gwx could be loaded. Add catalina load if is likely hysterical will break the game, represent big number of planes encounters, balance it should be a nightmare. Could help if the mod had a chance of fail at launch but I'm sure there's no, for both. Setting catalina fido with every time is loaded is a sure torpedo in the water will be annoying me.
