landing is time consuming. Like any big bomber.
need to slow seriously down, get on deck altitude and dont even bother using landing gear, just try to bellyland it slow and steady.
Got plenty of times landing “normally” but those bombers just dont brake in time

G91Y, A2D, FFA P16, and j32 all look really cool and the the first three climb really well but at their current ratings don’t seem that good so I don’t play them that often
If the gameplay was more balanced around those ratings I’d be playing those four planes all the time
MIG29G is cool looking but I don’t like extreme range gameplay, so I just test fly it sometimes for fun
irl i like the sabres but i don’t really play them that often compared to the MiGs
F4D-1 Skyray… don’t play it… because i don’t play Air
Fw 189C I rarely play it now, it sits at 3.0. And the only thing that speaks for it is the armor that makes it somewhat immune against rifle caliber as well as that it can turn. But its rather slow, can only carry 50kg bombs, has 4x MG 17 with 250 rounds each and 2x 15mm MG 151/15 which have penetration but lack damage. All while at 3.0 where other planes have 20mm guns and bigger, 500kg bombs and are WAY faster.

I like it very much, but games are over too quickly so I never really get much time in it and just gave it up
Just one is really hard, there are many options here.
Probably gonna have to go with the Javelin FAW.9 (8.3)
it’s such a unique and interesting aircraft but so incredibly weak for it’s BR due to compression that even the slightest uptier will render you DOA and most of the time you get a full uptier.
(and thats before this last major update, no idea how you are meant to play it now that the F3Hs hold absolute dominance at alt)
Other strong contender is any of the Harriers. I also really hate the Phantoms (in ASB, will never touch them in ARB) and I cant really explain why I dont like them, I should, but I just cannot stand them
F-5E (11.0.)
missing AIM-9P-4 when everybody else has AIM-9L R-60M R-40TD R-23T at same BR
also better or equal planes like NF-5 and J-7D are at lower BR
A26C45.
Even after the bomber buffs, it’s still just a bit faster less defended B-17, but sitting at 5.3 instead of 5.0 or 4.7.
Mig-21F-13.
I used it as a bomber, intentionally not going for air to air frags, & spaded it that way.
I wouldn’t use it again when I can use the Mig-21S instead, but I am glad I spaded the F-13.
Mig-27s.
They suffer a fate worse than Tornadoes.
Limited weapons, limited protection, equally bad at maneuvering, limited RWR, & only 0.3 BR lower in RB, & higher in simulator.
At least the higher BR Tornadoes have advanced weaponry to make things more interesting.
9Ms & advanced guided weapons.
I should play the Javelin again, the fact I can fly that plane on minimum fuel bewilders me to this day.
