On twin engined warbirds (bombers) is the conventional landing approach usually "power on" or "power off"?

In any 'heavies' that I'm familiar with (a mixture of twins and 4
engined) power is ususlly gradually reduced along the final
approach till just before touchdown when it is removed to idle,

Some a/c require more power, some require less power on final
(and different configuration and weight matters) so power
requirements vary quite a lot.
