This is another idea that has been floated around many times, and I think it would be a great addition to make aircraft more realistic. Dedicated bombers like the Ju-188 should have an additional crew position for the bombardier and be equipped with a bomb sight. This would increase the utility of some aircraft, make them more realistic, and provide players with more options based on whether they want to dive bomb or level bomb. Level bombing would also have the tradeoff of giving enemies more time to get into cover when they hear the bomb whistle, meaning the accuracy and ability to bomb from higher would be counterbalanced.

I like this idea.
Also squads should be able to hop in each others bombers or spawn together I should say so one player is flying the plane while other is at the bombsight
Left, left, right, Bombs Gone!

Bombsights for the right planes yes please!
I dont think the Ju188 A-2 had a bombsight 
…at least not in warthunder…but warthunder often misses stuff
It does have one in War Thunder, that was the only one that I knew for a fact had one in War Thunder so it’s the one I named. Literally just used it to confirm.

Those who have no reason to occupy your truck and prevent others from respawning or casually running into your tank to take control of it
Okay. This would be for squads only then or maybe the pilot could refuse or something. You wouldnt want to hop in some random’s bomber anyway because you wouldnt be able to communicate with them.
I just don’t want to see anyone parasitic on my plane
Well with my original idea it would be your squad like war thunder style squad so if youre playing by yourself there wouldnt be anyone anyway.
I’m picturing you as Oscar the Grouch flying a BF 110

He’s a grouch no matter where he fights his battles.
Bomb-sights are a must for the amount of dedicated bombers we have ingame
