A great many people don't care about reward.  This would be grossly abused.

It isn't hard to Kamikaze things as it is....
Up an A6M5b with full bombs, find a CV, Climb to 5k, dive straight down about half a boat length in front, at 1200ft drop the bombs and crash into the ship......

I believe this sim and warbirds does have a running calculation of kinetic energy of anything that is moving whether shells, rockets, or the airplanes themselves.

In warbirds, you can apply the kinetic energy of the plane to targets.

If it is enough to kill the target, the target is destroyed.

If this were ever implemented, it would be my last day in AH.

No V1, V2, Ohka, or kamikaze. No thanks.

I'm never trying to kamikaze but I often perish dive bombing cvs so maybe I can't criticize but this has always been a terrible idea. It could work in a one life special event that had structure but otherwise it would just be meaningless.

Why not? Create a new ammo package that has no guns or bombs, and reduced speed, and give this to any historical kamikazi planes. You all can argue about the damage delt.

No, for one anything of this nature bomb****ing, hotarding, and or suicide bombing is only catagorized under either score whoring and or the fun to other players/ however just because it makes the game fun to the one doing it doesnt mean its very fun to the one dealing with it.

Plus its already gotten to the point for me to where i bareley play, Iv'e just gotten tired of the bombing the ho'ing and whatever negative reactions I have with other people which is not very often, yet I have come to understand this, that I myself stand in a community of gamers and there are other voices to be heard therefore what I want does not come first and that it shouldnt.

But still as others have stated it will be abused no doubt about it for the long run anywyas hitech and the crew would have to so much modding to such a thing we wouldnt have a new plane or tank roll out for a decent time.
