The durability buff for bombers turned them into fighters

3000?
You’ve replied to the wrong post if you’re repeating my exact take.

I have taken down bombers in the last month within 40 contacted rounds, easily within 100 consistently.
Yes, that does mean a lot are missing cause my aim is bad, but getting better.

As for missiles… there’s a reason 2 AIM-9Bs are on bomber interceptors, & it’s not because they wanted to take out 2 bombers each.
It’s cause AIM-9Bs might not take out the bomber in one missile launch, & even two wasn’t guaranteed.
However, high-yield warheads like Firestreaks should probably do better.

Ju288c was always like that. NPCs love that plane for a reason

No, they’ve been buffed into battleships… there is nothing remotely realistic about how much damage bombers in game can now tank. You’re so wrong it isn’t even worthy of debate.

Air Simulator Enduring Confrontation remains utterly unplayable at prop tiers thanks to the bomber change. I want to play sim. I can’t be bothered to fight third person view terminator planes with mouse aimed gunners. I hate it.
