Jet and Bomber Bombing

[Yezo]

I have a question to ask. I've used the Americans F18 for bombing, and I'm quite good at it. But I notice when I use the SU, the line from the crosshair that tells you the start location of the bombing is exactly in the center. I would like to know how to use the SU.

Also I'd like to know how to jet bomb. I find with the F35B I can bomb averagely okay if I get down to a certain altitude. But with the J10, etc I just dont know how to approach it.

Any tips would be nice.

Re: Jet and Bomber Bombing

In the fighters, especially the fast ones like the J-10, I always get altitude first and then dive bomb the base. It is much more accurate because whatever your center crosshair is looking at is basically where you bombs will hit.

As for the bomber, its different because you dropping more bombs and it takes longer. Just start dropping 3-5 seconds before you fly over the target. Besides, carpet bombing is more for mass damage than accuracy.

I also recommend that dive bombing technique. Just fly up at about 300 - 400 feet and when you see a target on the screen fly down and lace them with the guns and if they're not dead from that drop a bomb on them as you fly over them. Don't underestimate the machine guns they are a lethal weapon.

Also always check your minimap to make sure there are no friendlies in the area your going to bomb as this will save you all the annoying teamkills.

Divebomb, you'll have less chance of being spotted by AA if your coming straight down on top of them, and it is 10x more accurate than trying to bomb at level flight or slight angles. I do most of my bombing like that in all the jets.
