Well, it begins… the grind of 2 big birds on the sky. How do I use this 2? You will get constant uptier and your pretty much defendless if there an missile coming for you. How do I use this 2 big birds in ARB and GRB?
Edit:
down tier is totally playable as long as you play it in the correct way.
In air you would need to climb as high as you can, and have half chaff and half flare equipped, ready to spam. Imo it is more useful in air sim.
In ground, well for the B-52 just drop some 2,000lb bombs where you think enemy are (like main roads or capture points), and a couple more at their spawn. With Tu-95, same as you would play the Pe-8.
I have problem trying to identify where are the base in a pure dark map or map cover by bunch of trees or clouds.
Work 60% of the time. If there is a Tu-4 in the match, it will be the only reason that I survive.
Just a note that all of the TU-95’s bombs are worse than the 12000lb Blockbuster and FAB-5000
B-52 has a sight pod with thermals and zoom.
slightly worse than FAB 5000 but still better than german 2500kg
Alright, that’s definitely going to help ALOT. How about the Tu-95?
Mighty old trusty eye.
When playing with bombers, I usually try to connect my aircraft flight path with the base in the tactical map. Once you are alligned, stay in bomb sight and wait till you see the base. You may not wanna fly too high for this one.
Also using the gunners third person view helps.
I see there is a 9 ton bomb lol I’ve played 9.0 a bit and saw tu-95m every game but hadn’t seen anyone drop it yet
Wow a 9000kg bomb is better than a 2500kg… yay.
You’re forgetting the 2500 is at 3.0
Dont be fooled by the bombs weight, its a bunker buster bomb, most of the weight its from the pennetrator tip of the bomb.
What it matters its the explosive mass.
Thats… what I said
You have thousands of countermeasures. In arb, I just space climbed to 12000m in the B-52 and had no problems with enemy fighters, so I was free to bomb bases. You really have to avoid conflict in these things though since they fall apart when they get hit
Very painful is it possible to notch missile with this 2 giants?
Will side climbing help?
Notch? no
But with enough chaff you may defeat the radar lock.
