They shoudl change Bomb from 500kb into 2 x 250kb bomb. It would be good balance

Berlin Plane on German already nerfed same way

Main problem with german planes in Berlin imo is the fact the Soviets have less and smaller bombs. Unless them being (forged) makes them somehow better idk

500 kg just need to be removed (250 as well). This is like addding nuke as standard bomb for all players in war thunder ground RB

This will also kill bombing since destroying tanks with 50kg is like throwing normal granades at tanks.

Bombers can be strong but keep in mind, that they can only do real damage if you know how to use them.

Bombers can be ineffective in this way, if you only kill one person per run so ground to most of the real work.

Bombs gets dangerous in invasion etc, but with a good pilot who can the enemy bomber out or an aa gun with good aim should atleast make the life harder. One hit at the wing, and the bomber needs longer for the runs overall but most of the time they do suicide anyway.

Uh. You do realize that 50kg is a whole lot of explosives, right?

I know, but if I throw it under a tank no damage in most cases.

On the training map I tested it a while and noticed it.

It’s sometimes funny if you can see how the bomb is just ricorchet of the tank but not helpful.

The drops need be 100% precise and have faith.

Maybe 100kg can atleast damage a tank but 50kg is not doing it in the most cases. Atleast for my German planes :slight_smile:

This is about moscow

Im fine with Soviet having less bomb, since German needs it to win games

Then they could simply buff bomb effectiveness against tanks. Anything more than 50kg is too much when considering infantry on these small maps.

lol 500kg’s are like little ticklers in terms of what kind of bombs they actually had take the Grand Slam Bomb for instance.

Yeah. Maybe this comes with the time when the damage model gets in state, where it’s more usable.

But I think only 50kg would be somewhat killing more ppl, since some bombers could drop like 10 or on the battle field. I think random death would happen a lot more often and frequent.

I hope we will get an option to choose an load out like in war thunder.

If I want I could go big bomb for massive damage at that spot or many smaller ones for more like a spreading or precise approach. What would happen if I would drop 10x 50kg on a tank at the moment where they just get reflect? :smiley:

But either way. We have to look forward how they want to evolve the game.

500 lb = 226kg.
250kg has not been nerfed, where do you get that idea from?

I agree the 250kg and 500lb bombs are a bit much but they should both be toned down a bit. Not just the 500lb one.

Well. The JU 87 R-2 has 500kg.
Atleast it’s display as it in German there.

Can be found in Moscow. German team. Is a premium bomber.

The OP of this topic is talking about the ALLIES plane on Normandy, and people are trying to get the Axis planes nerfed. That’s pretty dense…

Back on the main subject, I don’t think it needs to be nerfed, since it has only 4 bombs that weight 500 lbs (226 kg), compared to it’s Axis counterpart, which has 6 bombs that weight 250 kg.

What devs should do instead is fix the cover inside trenches and buildings, which is pretty inexistent at the moment, at least on the Normandy campaign, and instead of nerfing all planes, simply turning on friendly fire for planes would make pilots think twice before suicide bombing and clearing capture points on invasion mode single-handedly.
