If it didn’t affect us, we wouldn’t care.
However the act of base bombing in a strategically useful aircraft (especially the META premiums like J-7D) is directly a detriment to the team, not only does it prevent bombers/attackers from fulfilling their role, it also decreases the likelihood of winning since your main fighters are not recieving support due to said support flying in a straight line with only bombs equipped
I really love to do futile resistance in dogfight against enemy F-4S in my Tornado IDS, while allied MiG-23ML just rushes to base faster than me and just throws two ZB500 on it.
and also loves to be blamed as ‘You flies Tornado, you are no better than him. you are also dead weight to us.’

I choose to use the loadout because it is just more reliable for my particular use case.
I genuinely cannot tell if it’s ragebait or not.
Like one would think that he must be baiting. No intelligent, self-aware human being would hold such opinions, let alone even think about voicing them publicly if not to bait.
And yet the stats don’t lie. He has played hundreds of games in a IRIAF with a 0.5 kd. One could fly that plane using only one’s toes and still get a better kd ratio. It’s way too elaborate to be merely bait.
I’m at a loss.
Usually, taking missiles is more reliable than taking nothing but bombs.
unless you play way worse than others.
Hyperbolically,
IF I CAN HAVE.
6 EXTRA PL-5B
ON MY BOMB PYLON FOR TORNADO IDS
Then I will happily be armed with 6x PL-5B + 2x AIM-9L
rather than go for 5x 1000lb + 2x AIM-9L
Because, players like you who queued with MiG-23ML and armed with 2x ZB500 will always go faster to the base than my Tornado.
No offence but sincerely.
I really hope you get better at Air-to-Air
and enjoys both ways of fun.
As I claimed earlier, I ‘prefer’ Air-to-Ground for fun.
But I also enjoy doing Air-to-Air when I play fighter.
Also, I wish you luck for having better stats to not be statshamed. maybe some days in future.
Man, even though I want to defend you
0.13 KD on F-14A IRIAF is too much for it.
Just curious, did you bomb base with your F-14A, via using 12x 500lb Mk.82?
Yes, I bombed with the F-14 IRIAF. F-4EJ KAI and F-14 IRIAF were my first planes in air rb and i focused on targeting ground and bombing bases.
I was expected… expected this…
Thanks for answering…
golden thread, a gem
absolute CINEMA, if you will
my solution to the fighters bombing bases is wuite radical - significantly nerf rewards (and maybe increase them for dedicated strike aircraft), or straight up remove bombs from fighters in ARB
When i insult someone who deserved it i get instant 2weeks ban, but when whole forum is insulting one guy for 180 posts, everything is fine
He said iriaf was his first plane. So, the problem is, he is playing with it and he is getting rekt because he don’t know how to play. THAT MEANS THE GAME DOES NOT TEACH PLAYERS HOW TO PLAY.
There is literally NO TUTORIAL in game to show how to use radar, how to use SARH/ARH missiles, etc.
And no, “gO wAtCh yOuTuBe” is not an answer. everything you need to know for the game should be learned from the game.
Stop blaming players for poor game design
Honestly, it’s a wonder he just did not ditch the game and he keeps going.
There is a tutorial though isnt there if you select the modification for said missile
Oh please, where is a tutorial that explains how to use ARH with proper radar modes?
Again I think this is Gaijin problem not players… Gaijin should think about this not me I just play the game and grind and to grind most efficiently, unfortunately you need to bomb bases and not kill enemy players otherwise you are wasting your time.
I get your point and I agree but you should be saying this to devs not players.
jh7 is fun to dogfight
I ran a quick test in a custom match. Looks like about 228 tickets for one base. So more tickets than 2 ground units but less than 3.
This thread is the biggest freakshow I’ve ever seen on this forum.
If we consider the amounts of bombs for destroying a base
(for example, 5x 1000lb or 4x FAB-500)
It seems still not worthwhile enough for contributing to victory.
I’m going to go bomb even harder now just to mess with the players thinking they get to dictate how others get to play.
Its not. Base bombing has not be a viable way to affect a match’s outcome since they removed the ability to bomb the af.
They should add the sim-style af to rb. Have each section remove tickets when destroyed.
At least only do it when the air grind events are on. I want those easy kills.
