So how am I supposed to do anything with the B52?

Then I would say there has been enough role appropriation in our game…

Despite being designed for A2A, CAP fighters and Interceptors aren’t the same.
Despite being designed for A2G, excluding strategic bombers yet Pe8/ Lanca aren’t listed here, attackers can still be separated into doing CAS or doing AI/ BAI, the latter being more common in ww2 when JTACs wasn’t there yet.

It’s effectiveness after all. I don’t see a point of intended roles. You may even play a mig25 in GRB if there’s a high alt paveway meta, which there isn’t, so you won’t think about spawning mig25 and wait for no one.

B-52H is just a meme vehicle in most modes. it’s true usability only really exist in air sim airfield bomb runs or naval battleship bombing.

If you really want to play the B-52, play it in tandem with something like the B-66. It’s not suited for all maps and any uptier means you face IR SPAA platforms and jets that will easily kill you before you reach the battlefield. I play it in downtiers and I CONSTANTLY watch the map to see where my teammates are. Plus, it’s extremely inaccurate at high altitudes and I don’t play it every single time.
