AES

What AES is used? How do i see what AES is used?

Reed web page looks like link to https://www.iso.org/standard/54531.html maybe means its 128 but i dont know how to see for sure. I know how to do gpg --list-packets for gpg but it dont work for me with tomb file. How do u use command here to find out for tomb file?

I dont know if web page is out of date and 256 is used now or if tomb doesnt use 256. Many thanks to anybody that help me!

AES is used by cryptsetup, not gpg, by default it is AES 256 with the XTS mode:
