If you think a Cold War era TU95 can shrug off 6 direct hits from surface to air missiles like it’s nothing you are essentially telling me that I shouldn’t take you seriously.
lottery? lol

Of course anyone can shoot down a bomber, eventually.
But the issue arises when you lok at the balancing of effort per kill.
Fighter vs fighter, even against an average pilot it takes some skill, maneuvering and proper tactics from you to win the dogfight without being hit.
Fighter vs bomber, the fighter pilot must use skill, maneuvering and tactics to take down the bomber. But the bomber pilot isn’t required to use any to take down the fighter. To avoid being hit/damaged in your fighter, the bomber pilot has to be afk/braindead.

That is not what happened in the matches I played today. They flew just fine like nothing happened.
This is not what happened in the matches I played yesterday (your today), they crashed. All of them crashed.
Are you playing GRB?
Honestly curious, because that’s not how they behaved in the matches I played.
OK, it’s actually quite bad in Test Flight; the structure failed before the flight stability. They seem to have accounted the ECM protection rate in the DM.
Never have.
Are you trying to de-rail the conversation off-topic just because you don’t like what i say?
Test flights aren’t actual matches.
Which means I agree to your point
Thank you. Bombers were definitely too weak before. IMO they are too strong now. I just want a healthy middle ground. There was a TU 95 in one match and a B-52 in another and in both matches the team was helpless to prevent the damage to players in ground units.(I play a bunch of nations) One time a had a TU 95 on my team. We won but I didn’t feel good about it.
ECM missed and should be added btw.
This is what reasonable people want, me included.
While i agree these two are an issue with the current damage model, the biggest offenders are at lower BRs where fighters are relatively slow and have to get much closer for a reliable chance of a kill.

The TIS MA was a nightmare in a low tier match I played.
I saw Spookston’s video on it. Tried it for one GRB match.
7 kills with just the TIS MA in a matter of 2-3 minutes. 3 planes and 4 ground targets. I went in without caring about taking hits just to test how broken it is. Got hit plenty, got set on fire multiple times.
Landed without tail control, lost my tail on landing, got a bit over a minute repair timer. Match ended as i was taking off.
Su-8 and TIS MA should have never received any kind of buff.

I’m talking about its performance in GRB.
“someone got lucky therefore an AIRLINER eating six 75mm shells is a skill issue”
I see your logic hasn’t gotten any better since the last thread
