BBV can equip seaplane bombers. This allows them to do artillery spotting without a carrier. They can attack submarines with seaplane bombers. With decent seaplane bombers equipped, their ASW damage is not bad. Stats wise, nothing superior.

Normal BB, slow or fast cannot do artillery spotting without another ship in the fleet equipped with atleast 1 seaplane bomber/fighter/torpedo bomber/dive bomber.
