I suggest adding to enlisted
Avro Lancaster and Boeing B-29 Superfortress
are needed for the US nation to explore the nation along with a new class of fighter bomber pilot
the main advantages are the unattainable height for almost most enemy aircraft

Or if not a full size bomber, something like an American B-25 and German Heinkel He 111 which would be somewhere between a light and heavy bomber. I could see something like these maybe being used similar to the Ju-188. Unless Enlisted put in a bomb site, dive bombing is still the best method, and I think a B29 or a B17 would be a little big and cumbersome to be dive bombing. However, if they included a bomb site, maybe…It would be cool to expand the game to include high level bombers though.

And the main target will be the entire map…

Ok you realize that would be bad, either friendly fire is on(magic no hurt allies) or it kills almost everyone and crashes game

magic. After all, you’re playing arcade difficulty, not realistic

No na no no no , far too strong. as a call in like art/rocket arty/ bomb strike it could be balanced as a player vehicle it would be either br 7 or ten out of the current five. area of effect would be too large, b 29 is a high level strategic bomber, only a fraction of the bombs would hit target, more would vanish into gray zone and more of map, ---------i forgot one thing
Daylight Precision Bombing
By John T. Correll
Oct. 1, 2008
In the aviation enthusiasm of the 1930s, it was popular to claim that Air Corps bombardiers could drop a bomb into a pickle barrel from high altitude. In 1940, Theodore H. Barth, president of Carl L. Norden Inc., said that “we do not regard a 15-foot square … as being a very difficult target to hit from an altitude of 30,000 feet,” provided the bombardier was using that company’s new M-4 bombsight connected to an autopilot.
That was stretching it considerably. In everyday practice in 1940, the average score for an Air Corps bombardier was a circular error of 400 feet, and that was from the relatively forgiving altitude of 15,000 feet instead of 30,000.
-------so given that of a payload of 40 500lb bombs, you may be luck to get 2-5 in the enemies area as a 400 ft circle would include the entire active map area that is enemy zone 1/4 enemy gray 1/4 allies zone 1/4 allies gray, also how high can planes fly in enlisted is the skybox even 10 000 plus feet high

Artillery pretty much kills everyone as it is now, especially if it is an outdoor map. However, I would probably not go so far as to use heavy bombers, but I would love to see light bombers like the B-25 or Heinkel, even if they are used as dive bombers more so then heavy bombers with payloads similar to the Ju-188.

What are you going to bomb?
You might barely land a bomb inside the active play zone from that high up, you wont see anything due to render distance
And no one wants yet another teammate being effectively afk D:

depending on which bombs to bomb, there is also a tollboy and a nuclear weapon

Tallboy was made for bunkers and battleships it would blow up 50 feet underground, nukes would crash the game

Id happily see these added but only if my squadmate and I can control the same aircraft.
Maybe if one member of a squad or even a teammate spawns in a Lancaster, you are given the option to ‘Join’ them and then you spawn inside the plane with them and can swap around different gunner positions as well as bomb aimer similar to how tank crews work?
Id love to recreate all those cool 60s movies/tv shows like the Dambusters and Pathfinders with my squadmate flying and me on bomb aimer
