I won the new I-16 with bomb capability.   I put them on and hit a target with just one bomb my very first try.....  at the same time, noticed I had a enemy plane kill (unintentional) by bomb with out even trying.   It takes NO skill !!!!

What !!!! ???? it is still a fighter........lol

 

See, bomb kills aren't just about IL's whether you meant it or not.

 

Now, show me your bombardier count of 74 or more in which you skillessly bomb kill an enemy plane in 74 different planes.

That was my first ever and my last bomb attack.  Just one of those bombs took out a battleship all by myself !!!    The only strafe ground attack I ever do is if needed at the end of a game to win and I am too far away from a target, and then its very seldom.   A stationary target......I derive no thrill....... It takes NO skill.......

But...but...but... Bombs are for planes, not ground targets. Planes move in all kinds of wonky directions, and a skilled bomb killer has to first anticipate whether the enemy will come into range at all. And if they do, when to drop the bomb so the jet that is screaming past in an attack from the side is exactly over the limited blast radius of a randomly timed bomb. That's a skill, my friend, and it's a mad skill at that. 

 

You are funny. You were gifted an IL, flew and skillessly lost your only battle in it. Yet, you carry on about ILs like you swept the board in the one battle you played and found it sooo easy to win that you were forced to sell the plane.

Now, you accidentally get a bomb kill in a fighter. The fact that you only realized you had an enemy in bomb range after he died, doesn't say a ton for your situational awareness at the time. So, you promise never to load bombs again, but I'm sure you'll still prattle on as though you have the skill to do what those of us in the 3KBKC can do, when you........don't.

I've told this story before....ok...one more time

'the single IL flight'....I flew it as a fighter.   Just tapped the guns and blew the ^^^^ out of plane.   Easiest kill I ever made.  As I stated many times before, stationary targets....I get no thrill.....it really takes NO skill

Typically....... your bomb kills are made in planes with 4-6 times the hp of the plane you kill.  Funny and ironic how the blast never takes you out, isn't it  !!!!!

You are quite funny, but are you actually asserting that all 74 planes he is referring to are ALL 3-4 times the HP of EVERY bomb kill victim? Just a quick sanity check, was the plane you bomb killed 3-4 times lower in HP?

 

Just a quick BTW, the last time we had this convo, you piped up about not respecting the opinion of pilots with less than 10k battles, I have over 10k battles now, what's your next excuse?

Got Bombardier Insignias #75 & #76 in my XF-90 and J7W3 respectively.

Spoiler

 

[Zapperguy]

Okay last Bombardier update for a bit. I have 184 planes in my hangar. 77 of those planes have the ability to carry a bomb. Until I buy another bomb-carrying plane, my mission is complete.

 

77 Bombardier Insignias

very nice. not an easy feat!

[Med1cated]

My YouTube channels have several aerial bomb kills. One won me the show your moves prize a few years ago. It's fairly easy if you just stop trying so hard and use The Force.      https://www.youtube....?v=8RALkcHnUeo

I've seen tex in battle a few times. It's usually in t4 to t6. I've always been in the opposite team  from him. He usually goes after the humans in ga's in his light fighter first and ignores the humans in fighters.

Hey may be, but he is right about the I-16's carrying rockets, bit bombs.

Snot,

The I-16 comes in 3 versions. The 2 planes in the multirole fighter tree are the I-16(e) and the I-16(l). Both have rocket carrying ability and you are correct, no bombs. The 3rd I-16 variant is the I-16-29 (a premium) which does indeed have both rockets and bombs (nice ones too). That is what Texthor was referring to in his post. As much as I like to prove Tex wrong, he's not in the case of properly identifying the plane he flew.

[Psicko23]

Oh yeah, I forgot about the premium i-16. I haven't played in awhile. The two tech tree i-16's definitely do not have bombs.

The two tech tree i-16's definitely do not have bombs. <---- this is what i went by. since i don't pay to play here...i dont use prem planes. hence my lack of knowledge on the 'new' i-16...so for THAT and that alone i offer a retraction to texthor stating they have 0 bombs, even though i was half right...i wasn't totally right and i will admit when that happens.

The I-16-29 was a recent giveaway plane for completing missions. That's how many of us have acquired the majority of our premium planes. No $$ involved, just completing a few missions. Pay closer attention to the events happening in game and you can get some nice free stuff.
