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.
