I don’t see the possibility for modern long range bombers within the current game. If we would like to see them we will need a specialized game mode or even them to be added as collector items that can be flown and you get everything already with it. I prefer the specialized game mode it will allow the more realistic players or the players who want more realism within War Thunder to enjoy the game more. I think the game mode should be a large scale battle similar to sim but with even larger maps it will allow War Thunder to add AI AWACs and tanker aircraft it will also allow for the aircraft carriers to play a larger role within War Thunder. This can also setup a possibility to add missile like the AIM-174 and the KS-172 along with other known long range air to air missiles like the R-37m and the Meteor.
We would need more bases and other bombing targets.
Also current bases have so low hp, that a single (b52 for example) can destroy more than 4 bases without rearming. They can also add things like industrial sites (sead) or even bunkers to hit with bunker buster bombs.
I feel it would be better for it to be a game mode similar to sim to its not too hard to balance due to the close range combat it will force fighters to cover them for a advantage or at least distract the enemy it will also allow for more NATO Vs Non NATO and something like a Tu-160 and B-1 to be fast while fighter distract and B-52 or Tu-95 is more about protection it will force others to play more strategically
Still a single B52 can take a single airfield in sim, let alone the bases.
It shouldnt depend into having actually useful teamates.
Im talking about making a whole new gamemode for it
