The French TI bomber F.222.2 is insane!

I can’t believe how darn good this thing is. Okay, the gunners suck, it’s made of cardboard and its slow as heck, but the bombload is crazy. If you’re looking for better speed and gunners, then go with its bigger brother the TII NC.223.3 with 2x 20mm and a singular 7.7mm. The bombload is 52x 50kg bombs or some 100kg’s and some 50kg’s. But with bottom mounted engines it’s pretty vulnerable. And again it’s wings snap after being shot a couple times by a BF2C1. Or what happens most of the time is both wings and the tail snap of and you are left in a 90kts death spin and a burning fuselage. You guys got to try this plane out. And the cherry on top: with a full bombload it can down an airfield completely.

Ah the flying shoe box, how fun you are in Coastal

So true, I love absolutely murdering boats with this thing.

I actually prefer it over the 3.0 bombers. Those things just cannot turn at all.

Yeah, it’s maneuverability is stunning.

This thing would say hello

TB-3 turns like UFO for somehow.

It’s the true carpet bombing that this thing is capable of that makes this vehicle truly shine.

One ground RB game, this guy was mocking me when he saw me take it out. Then he witnessed the destruction.

Yep…i recall using this YEARS ago when i played Air Battles…arcade. I could climb a bit and at the time many fighters would not climb to engage…and i could bomb stuff horizontally for the entire match…had more fun when dropping on ground targets…the “X targets destroyed” message was kind of rewarding, even if it was just aiming a crosshair".
Never actually understood why fighters would not climb to intercept…was an easy target when i was on the fighter…

Not sure how it works now…
