    Ok, not sure exactly what you mean but, here goes.

    Fighters carry 6 air to air missiles, and 2 free fall bombs.

    Bombers carry 4 air to air missiles, and 5 free fall bombs and 16 laser guided maverick missiles.

    If you do a bombing run, and release all your bombs, when you fly over your airfield/flight deck, you normally re-arm your full complement. Most times, the bomber reloads 5 bombs, and the fighter reloads 2.

    There are a couple of exceptions though; Wake Island, when you fly over the airfield, you normally only re-arm with 1 bomb. Unless I slow down substantially while flying over the airfield, I ususally only pick up 1 bomb.

    If you're in the bomber and not picking up 5 bombs, then 1 of two things are happening.

    1. You are not flying the entire length of the runway to re-arm. Sometimes if you cut across the corner, or don't fly the entire length of it, you may only pick up 2,3 or 4 bombs on a re-arming run.

    2. YOU ARE HACKING! no, just something is screwed up.

    So, not sure when you say 6 bombs. No fixed wing aircraft carries 6 "bombs"

      I am always able to fully reload my missles. But I have only been able to reload up to 2 Bombs, never anymore regardless of how many times I go back to the runway. Is this just me or is this the way it is suppose to be?

        After your whole freakin’ team has died and the other team has all the flags... there still remains that one jerk in the jet that keeps flying around in circles. You hit “C” and you watch him in 3rd person. But then that STUPID thing keeps popping up in your face every 3 seconds and you have to keep hitting “enter” for it to go away, only for it to reappear, again, and again. How do you stop this? If you can’t, EA should definitely fix this.
        Once the enemy team caps all of the flags, and you have nowhere to spawn, and there is only one guy left...the match is pretty much over. Many people yell and scream at the one person left to create a squad so that they can spawn. This is not possible. 1) Since 1.3, squad hopping while dead was taken out. 2) You can't spawn on a squad leader if there are no spawn points...period.

        The only thing that the person can do is TRY to cap a flag. 99 times out of 100, this won't be possible as the enemy commander can just do a scan and find you and then spot you for his troops. This will usually result in a quick death and the end of the round.

          About the respawn screen that pops up every 20 seconds or so,look in the top right corner of that screen.There is an X for u to close the screen and it wont pop up till u hit the ENTER button.

            You're talking about the bomber, correct? The only thing I can think of is that when a flag for the airfield is gray, you may not fully reload. On Operation Clean Sweep, if the US has the flag gray, you may only get 2 bombs on a runway pass at the small airstrip. That's the only thing I can think of.

            Is it on any map? Any bomber? (US/MEC/PLA)

            If no matter what map/bomber you use, and can only get 2 bombs in a bomber, then there is something majorly wrong, and I have no clut what.

            As, I've said, I sometimes get 2, 3 or 4 bombs, but never consistently 2.

            Hope this helps...

              I think u might be confused with bombs and missiles
              and fighter vs bomber

              fighters get 6 missiles and 2 bombs
              bombers get less missiles (4?) and 5 bombs
              and not sure of this is true for ALL versions of jets
              edit:
              sorry for this post
              guess I missed page 2 with all the answers already posted

                I was in this position as Commander, last person on the Insurgent team on Warlord. I was trying to cap the Security Office, but my UAV showed all 32 players on the other team converging on me, so I called in artillery on myself! They quickly killed me, but while waiting for the respawn time to finish and the round to end the arty landed :) Bodies flying everywhere!

                  Apparently you are correct because I never did get those points from those servers after being banned =/

                  mwuahah and I just thought of a really bad idea. So, technically if I wanted to I could go into a server and cause pure chaos tk'n people etc etc. Then the admin bans me... the points wouldn't count against me would they?
