Almost can not destroy Light Vehicles

[HoppA]

With a Bomber it is hard to destroy vehicles for the last month. The cars and other vehicles were made a lot stronger then they were a few weeks/ months ago. Anybody feels the same about it? I use 1000 lb Bombs

Yeah, but i don’t think its the tanks.
I think they nerfed bombs in general.

Bombs damage radius was changed about 5 months ago:

@Stona_WT

The maximum radius for damaging armored vehicles by blast wave, which depends on the mass of the explosive in TNT equivalent, has been recalculated. Previously, these values were unrealistically overestimated for higher explosive masses, and unrealistically underestimated for low explosive masses. So, for example, large bombs could destroy vehicles with a blast wave at distances where in reality they could not even hit infantrymen, while small-caliber HE shells, due to their underestimated damage radius, often inflicted too little damage.

@Necronomica

values were unrealistically

They are just unrealistic how they are now. did you know that values were unrealistically when bombers were losing wings and tail sections. So as a bomber player, I am not happy with the cars, as they are so hard to shoot or bomb. fix that plz

Damage Overview (1000-lb GP Bomb):

• Direct Hits/Immediate Vicinity: A direct hit or a bomb landing within 10–15 meters (roughly 30–50 feet) of vehicles would completely destroy trucks or unarmored cars. The explosion would produce a large crater, flipping or obliterating multiple vehicles in the immediate vicinity of the blast.
• Column Structure and Fragmentation: If the bomb exploded in the middle of a column, it could create a gap of roughly 30–50 meters (100–160 feet) in the convoy, effectively destroying 3–6 trucks and causing severe damage to others. The fragmentation, often from the casing itself, could damage vehicles and cause casualties well outside the immediate crater zone.
• Armored vs. Unarmored Vehicles: While soft-skinned trucks would be completely destroyed, armored vehicles in the column might survive if the bomb landed more than 10-15 meters away, often only sustaining minor damage, though the blast would still likely immobilize them or injure the crew

If you have sources that proves that it should be different then feel free to make a historical report for it. You can report it here (just search a bit first so that you don’t report something that is already reported and known about): (Gaijin.net // Issues)

They do have requirements for what sources are acceptable:

@HoppA

did you know that values were unrealistically when bombers were losing wings and tail sections.

That has more to do with those being to weak and not guns being to strong. Bombers are already planned to get buffed in that regard, they said it in the Q&A video a while back.

Please don’t use AI, at best it’s wrong half of the time. Use actual sources that you can link to in order to prove your claims.

Yes ure right :)
