Naval Bombers

The Naval Bomber is designed for use over water and make accurate tactical strikes against enemy surface vessels using torpedoes or armour-piercing bombs. They have a limited dog-fighting capability, which makes them vulnerable if intercepted by fighters.

Notes

  • Sea detection was drastically reduced in Armageddon. Naval bombers now need ships to find their bombing targets. (Yes, this is unhistorical).
  • Still, naval bombers are so powerful, that many players consider using them an exploit.
