Incendiary bombs, su30mk

i’ve recently realized that the su30mk is really good for bombing and im wondering,
should i bring heavy bombs that do the work but weigh a lot or should i bring small weightless incendairy bombs that weigh a LOT less but get the job done too

im wondering bc when bombing with the incendairy bombs it says ive blown up less in tonnes but i still destroy the base so im wondering what i should bring for better rewards

Oh my God I know an expert in the field

to clarify what i meant on the last part is that, compared to big bombs that weigh a lot, when i bomb with incendairy bombs that dont weigh much, it says ive destroyed a lot less, like 0.046 tonnes vs with big bombs it says 1.7 tonnes

Oh? How do i contact him for help

He’ll be here soon enough I am sure

The best bomb loadout for Su-30MK3 is 2x FAB-1500s on the empty store positions.
Gets you one base without sacrificing weapons.
The best 2 base loadout is likely the same FAB-1500s, with 2x Napalm on the engine store positions.

probably call it weak too

these are the ones i use (1,4, 5)


)
taking into account the fact that you could flank to avoid jets wouldn’t no.4 be best?
6 incendiary bombs already get you 3 bases + the additional 1500 kg guided ones? i could maybe switch those out for a 25 more kg FAB bomb but i doubt it would do any difference whatsoever considering 2 1500kg guided are enough for a base- or do you have a suggestion?

Number 4 should remove the double pylon napalm in favor of targeting 2 bases consistently.
The guided FABs should be swapped for the unguided so there’s as little delay in dropping them as possible.

You’ll get more per-base rewards, and you don’t have to cross the map, or deal with friendlies that also want to bomb a base or two.

Bringing guided munitions drops your base bombing rewards as well.
IMO it shouldn’t, but for now it does.

so there’s as little delay in dropping them as possible.

Damn, yeah i noticed this becoming an issue for me but i forgot what the fix was LOL, i’ll definitely do that then

You’ll get more per-base rewards, and you don’t have to cross the map, or deal with friendlies that also want to bomb a base or two.

wdym? what are you referring to? i had heard once by a teammate of mine in a game that if you bring more bombs you get less rewards for destroying bases and such, is that true? and if so is that what you’re referring to?

Bringing guided munitions drops your base bombing rewards as well.

Rly? wow i didn’t know that lmao


wait, how about this? 3 rvv’s and then 2 1500kg & 4 napalms

More bombs you bring the following occurs:
You get less per-base rewards, but more total rewards.
In air RB, you want per-base rewards more often due to how intense the game mode is.

Here’s an example of guided weapon shenanigans: 5.0 vs 4.1 reward multiplier for bases.


They however fixed it for missiles:

That’s a good 3 base loadout.

This will be getting funny to watch )))

how come? are you saying this based on the fact that ppl dont usually survive full games?

also yikes, i noticed on my 3 base loadout i only got 3.9

any more ideal loadout?

It’s based on average speed of a match for sure.
One sortie of guaranteed 1 - 2 bases can give you a perspective of how long the match will go on for.

You can decide to fight, to RTB for more bombs, etc after that initial bombing.

It’s less time bombing in the first run, which is beneficial for yourself and your team.

Lmao
