Ground Target Kills
« on: January 26, 2001, 02:15:00 PM »
Can anyone tell me what the bomb load required is to kill ground targets (or point me to where it's documented)?

VH (I'm pretty sure this is 3000 lbs)
BH
FH
Barracks
Fuel Depot
Radar
Ammo Depot
HQ
Ack (various sizes)
City Structures
Factory Structures

I spend 10-15 minutes getting to the target and don't want to dodge fighters over the target wondering if I've dropped enough bombs.  I want to make that first pass count!
Thanks!!!

VH - at airfield=3000....at Vehicle field=1000
BH - 3000
FH - 3000
Barracks - not sure...doesnt take much
Fuel Depot - same as above
Radar - dont know
Ammo Depot - dont know
HQ - 30,000  (i think)
Ack (various sizes) - any size bomb...bigger the bomb the less accurate you have to be.
City Structures - varies
Factory Structures - same as city

I hope this helps a little....I dont know all of them.

Barracks: 100 lbs
Radar: 500 lbs
Ack: spitwad; three 20mm hits kills one
Ammo: 500 lbs
Fuel: 500 lbs
HQ: 16,000 lbs; I hit an HQ with a full Lanc load and it didn't die. Went back and put that 4,000 lbs cookie on target; BOOM!
City: 250 lbs per building
Factory: 250 lbs per building

I say 500 lbs in some cases since I know a 500 pounder will blow the target. It may go up after taking a 250 lbs bomb hit.
