No? Not how that works at all. They are all purebred fighters.

No, they’re more of bombers. They suck at pretty much everything else.
They are fighters. Purebred at that.
Well, Lockheed in the USA scammed allies for selling purebred interceptors as ‘well-made multirole’
Maybe F-104S/S.ASA can be considered as a bomber, sadly. :/
If we compared to counterparts in the same BR which developed later than 1950s.
Still, despite that. it is nonsense if we claim that we need to change their class into Attack Aircraft or Bomber.
Yeah, how dare players do the challenges the game gives them?
Last night my buddy had a destroy 6 bases challenge he wanted to complete for a special order. He tried changing it, only to get bomber missions and strike aircraft missions, of which he doesn’t fly any. Instead of spending another 500k to get a better challenge, he opted to use his F4 to bomb and then A2A fight.
He did better than most “dedicated fighters” on the team anyways. Removing napalm won’t stop the game’s design, or base bombing in general from people. The system itself is rigged in favor of it.
Do I think bombing is useless in general at high tiers? Absolutely. That doesn’t change the fact that this is actively encouraged by the game itself, and I won’t blame the players for that reason.
Even in game if you use them as bombers, in most cases you are simply saying either you’re not good enough or too lazy to make them work as fighters when they will reward you more for doing that.
But like, in all reality though, they’re bombers. It’s like calling the Crommy V a medium tank. It might be CALLED a medium tank, but REALLY it’s a light tank, and one of the fastest at its BR.
I hope Gaijin make them(bombing) a bit more useful than now
If we consider that there are strategic bombers like B-29 or dedicated interdictors like Tornado IDS exist.
But if Gaijin ever thought about that
They would take care of the Cockpits of Bombers too. but they don’t.
Nah, I don’t have F-104S series of mine. working on grind yet.
Although, if I need to bomb something with ITA TT, they also have a fancy lady from the British Empire.
Not the purebred interceptor which got sold for ‘mediocre multirole purpose’ via scam.
The real solution is to have a bigger reward for engaging in air to air combat.
Spoiler
The italian f104s and s.asa need to be moved down without this change anyway lol.
No? In that world?

yes, rbec would solve sooo much, and would allow them to add so many new vehicle types as well.

Crommy is ‘Cruiser tank’
Which weighs 28 tonnes. And designated as ‘medium tank’
she has a similar weight to M4 Shermans or T-34 than M24.
She is a light-armored medium tank.
Having light armor can’t be reason that it needed to called as ‘light tank’
With similar theory, F-104S/S.ASA can’t be called ‘bomber’ because of they are underpowered for the fighter role in the current meta.
Hehe, wait till this guy sees how much the M1128 LIGHT TANK weighs. Weight is little more than a number. The Cromwell V may be a medium tank in the flesh, but it’s a light tank in soul and spirit.
18.7 tonnes without external armor.
still way lighter than Crommy and similar to M24.
Yes. That is why it is designated as a medium tank.
Then, will we go back to the original topic about napalm bombing fighter, shall we?
Sure. I believe that all premiums rank 5+ and the F-84F should lose their incendiaries.
Because they ignore your ping on base when you play your A-4 and steal your bases?
Because they ignore me when I ping on a base in my B-57 and steal my bases.
all that is, is a honor system, it has nothing to do with plane classification

Man, both F-84F and B-57 is doing their intended job.
‘Start the fire at some random jungle.’
Do you really think that Gaijin needs to nerf F-84F because F-84F mains dishonor your B-57?
You sound like the other guy who claimed [F-4EJ need to be nerfed because I can’t bomb in my J-7D] before.
Yes, I do.
