Bomb a plane with a bomb / EDIT: challenges for pilots

Perhaps a nice challenge for a battle pass task or an event?

in like 400 hours of gameplay I got plane kill with a bomb only once, so maybe it’s a bit too much?

It is a real challenge.
The 1st pic was fully intentional, the 2nd a nice bonus surprise.

EDIT: perhaps it’s better as an Achievement because you get much more time for that.

Perhaps “bomb 2 tanks with 1 bomb” is also a nice Achievement.

There are not many Achievements/battle tasks for pilots.
Here’s another one “destroy a plane with rockets”.

So now we have:

  1. Bomb a plane with a bomb
  2. Bomb 2 tanks with 1 bomb
  3. Destroy a plane with rockets

Please feel free to add more!

Kill 100 enemy in 100 second with only a knife

Kill 2 tanks with Stuka is pretty easy due to splash damage … and when you kill plane its becasue he get close of where you dropped your big bomb so you dont hit it directly … i allready take out P47 with WfGr21 thats a challenge

Yes but dont work, for some reason the knife get dispersion

While flying a plane??

Yes but you need to be fortunate that 2 dumb tankers decide to stand close to each other.

Yes

No need for direct hit, enemy plane is killed by the bomb explosion.

And is possibile you need do hit marker during a strafe run and another player has to kill them on the ground with a knife

  1. Destroy a plane and a tank simultaneously BUT with different weapons :grin:

Pilot cant equip orfhenor, yet

Dont underestimate enlisted average players … never

I have done this a few times, but I fly a lot, it’s pure luck if it happens.

Get a fighter to chase. Get tree line low and watch the bullet trajectory passing by you. Once its level reduce speed and drop bombs. It’s not as hard as it seems. However, the bomber tail I completely ripped off with my FG42 II last week in Normandy was complete luck.

Personally I do it about every other game. It just depends on how you are trying to do it.

Instead of flying high toward the rearm point, (keep in mind, the rearm is not only up high, it also counts when you are low to the ground), I keep low using the terrain to my advantage. The trees and hills help against less skillful pilots, plus slowing down and letting tailgunners work does nicely. If I have bombs available, I cut throttle entirely, glide really low and let them try to get in behind me. Drop bombs and full throttle. By the time they realize I’ve sped up, they get fried by the bombs.
