Planes Used In Airstrikes??

Snaptrap · 05-13-08, 06:18 AM

I'm wondering how to do an airstrike and what kind of planes are called in to do the job? Thanks!

Depends on whether you are talking a Naval based airstrike or a Land based Airstrike.

For Naval based strikes,you'd need a mix of Dive Bombers and Torpedo bombers with some fighters as escorts.

For Land based strikes you'd be better off using Medium Bombers with a fighter escort.

Can you request air support to defend you from air attacks?

Don't think so, If you send a contact report near a convoy there is a chance of an airstrike on it but otherwise I don't think so

1)I knew he meant in game. 2)I was assuming he was trying to mod in airstrikes...therefore the answer on airstrike mixes.
