The F-4EJ can bomb bases at a further distance using its rockets than many other planes, by simply using its CCIP and shooting at bases far away before other fighters can even reach the base and drop the bombs; it is also one of the only planes that can mount a full set of rockets capable of destroying a base.
I have been playing the F-8E, MiG-23, MiG-21BIS, Kfir Canards, F-5C, J-7D, F-104G, Mirage F1C, but these phantoms can beat them all (if they try) and take bases.
This is not fair for other players not playing the phantoms.

LMAO, of course you’ll post here as well on the same topic.
Well, I guess you’ll have adapted to taking rockets on all your fighters/ Interceptors & learn to aim the rockets on aircraft without CCIP/CCRP or or OR hit ground targets/ fight aircraft over flying to bombing points with napalm/HE bombs.
The only thing that gets me about this is they nerfed rocket bombing to make it impossible to stop the spamming of that happening like it was yet somehow allow this one plane to do that still
I don’t care if it can beat others to a base first, why’s it allowed to take a base with rockets when that was a whole thing that was meant to be removed
Forum is so toxic. Why not just let everyone bomb? F-4EJ bombing is NOT a problem (that plane sucks at airfight compared to other premiums), neither are planes like mig-21,23. For example like mig 23, the 2 incendiary bomb + 2xR24 loadout gives much more and stable reward than the “full fighter” R-60m+R24 loadout. Apparently fighter players feel so shocked that someone can bomb.
Because letting everyone bomb and we got jet with good air frame doing the most basic thing for short term gain ? We literally have an example , right in this thread and brub hit people with that “Why so toxic let people bomb”. While ignoring that these fighter are generally faster and tend to beat other plane , such as strike plane, that need these base to grind the their modi. Not like people are base bombing with jet that can doghfight good then just to roll over and die after they get to the base right ?
There’s no what “short term gain” and “long term gain”. A gain is a gain. With current game mechanic, bombing with fast fighters (mig 21,23) provides big gain, fighting provides unstable and small gain, so you don’t need to be surprised people go bombing.
Who would be more useful
A player who buy premium then just basebombing to top tier
A player who bought a premium and suffer with premium to learn the most basic thing about ARB
The short term gain is they get what they want fast but they will end up being dead meat. If that all you can see then don’t call other toxic , also bro name is literally crash to deny people kill. Literally a part of the problem , no wonder bro defending his own kind
Base bombing doesn’t mean useless. You don’t realize there are many cases where a player already know air battle basics by playing one nation, he needs to grind another nation, then his priority will of course be a fast grind to top tier than “learning airfight” again.
Another case is when the premium plane sucks so much that the player can’t really learn much fighting in it. The F-4EJ is notorious as one. The recent bombing method with Zuni mk32 actually made the situation of that plane better.
I would normally recommend against bombing in most of the planes you listed, though the F1C and Kfir Canard are at least understandable.
In my experience using the Canard for base bombing (Primarily during tasks that require specific amounts of bases be done) I find its often fast enough to very easily make it to a base well before any F4EJ, or any F4 for that matter.
It’s sad that they prioritize a single base for minimum battle/travel time.
Does make a lot easier targets having to rise up above the terrain for ccip targeting.
Other phantoms and sarh missiles going to have an excellent time.
