still not working
Okay but that’s strategic bombers at their cruising altitude attacking important targets. This is War Thunder where they spawn at 4-5km, that even a Sabre is gonna be at simply by climbing straight to midmap, attacking arbitrary points worth one or two hundred tickets. If they spawned higher and weren’t as likely to uptier into supersonic interceptors then sure, but with the state of 9.X BR compression they face them almost every match.

this is why these are April fools event aircraft instead of Tech tree planes
Can we also have a longer runway? I manage to land 2 times with my Tu-95M and get 6 bases in down tier. I could have got more if I didn’t have to land extremely slowly at such a short runway and delete all the trees in front of the runway.
Tu-95 is literally unplayable in RB right now. Countermeasures are useless and you can’t even fire them while using the turret. A single 20mm bullet rips your tail off even though it’s a massive section. Lower it to 8.0 BR or less.
Gaijin doesn’t have any idea for the bombers since introduction of higher tier jets. They have been neglegted in this stage for many, many years. Then came the structural nerf, longer after that possibilty to detonate bombs and till this day they are in this weird place.
I honestly think that the first thing that should be done in comple redesign of targets you can bomb in Air RB. Make it bigger, add more variety and overall quantity and definitely a structural buff for bombers is needed so they don’t disintigrate after short 20mm bust.
Strategic bombers are high high in the air before coming to the target at full speed you are compering a game to real life.
Sure war thunder is realistic in some ways but it is not 1 to 1 compered to real life
Good point also Vulcan on the B52 in my opinion should get a buff to the range sure people can intercept from front on B52 but it’s still nice to have more effective protection
Another change that could help is give them long range weapons
B-52H can carry:
AGM-158A JASSM (mach 0.9, warhead size up 500 kg, range 370km )
AGM-158B JASSM-ER (same as A just longer range)
AGM-154 JSOW
Tu-95M can carry:
Kh-101( mach 970 km/h warhead size 400-800kg, range 3500km max)
Kh-555(mach 800km/h, warhead size 500 kg, range 3000km)
Now gaijin can limit and nerf those weapons in range and count of how many can it carry
B-52H:
AGM-154 50+ irl (gaijin can limit to 15 or less)
AGM-158A/B 20 irl (gaijin can limit 5+ or less)
Tu-95M:
Kh-555 6 irl (no need to limit but disabler pairing them with 101s)
Kh-101 14 irl (gaijin can limit to 5 or less)
