Categorize B26 As "Attack"

[FBCrabby]

Since B26 is a fast penetration bomber with a respectable bomb load and capability to dogfight to an extent, would it be acceptable for the B26 to be able to fly under Attack and not just bomber? Afterall other penetration bombers like the Betty and Ki are listed as attack and so it the Ju-88 "probably its used alot for killing gv's"

If the use dictates the categorization in-game, then B26 fits it. B26's are usually the first to attack Cv's and other A.S.A.P bombing.

What do you think?

Stick the torpedoes on & yes.

Yes... do this, that way it'll be easier to nerf when the A-20 gets moved to the fighter hangar and everyone switches to the B26....

Agreed

IMO, the B26 should be classified as an attack aircraft.  It doesn't have 6/50's in the nose for dog-fighting.  If I remember correctly, the B26 was designed to replace the A20, yes?


I asked this question a few years ago and it didnt go anywhere.  Lets hope HTC is watching this time.

more I look back - this has been asked quite a few times...

Wait wait, hold on a sec! ...... the A20 is being moved to the FH  ?

Do a quick search for A20 & F3 Mode...  nothing from HTC, but the apes are beating their chests like they did with the IL2.

Wrong B-26.

The Martin B-26 was a level bomber.  The Douglas A-26 was the replacement for the A-20, and was redesignated the B-26 after the Martin B-26 was retired.

Too many 'A's and 'B's and '26's

switching the b26 to attack would be the easiest way to get fighter perks.  it's easy to get 15-20 perks for sinking cv and wont even get scratched from the ack.  not bad for 15 min worth of work.

Neg.  It would still be bomber perk points earned.

Only fighters get shot down from ack, bombers rarely do.

[guncrasher]

do attack mode give you fighter or bomber perks?
