you can adjust the enemy drones to tanks that will be on the base. go to arena setup and then find offline drones.

See the staged mission forum.  There are a number of staged missions where you spawn in air near an enemy base or fleet in a heavy fighter or bomber, both land and sea targets.  One of my posts has a list of staged missions, although it has not been updated in months so there are more missions available than listed.

These are excellent.

Yipi,

Please feel free to send me a message letting me know what day/time you would like to meet up in the Training Arena and I will gladly go over weaponeering/bombing with you.

I am not available this week until Monday, but should be able to link up after that.

The Trainers are here to help!

Cheers! :cheers:

Thx Rodent. I may have missed something  about the Training Arena because when I bomb a target I don't get text saying it was killed before it rebuilds? So am I doing something wrong it doesn't help me if I don't know if I am hitting it well enough or not.

Yipi, when you've dropped the bombs, switch back to the Calibration View so you can look where your bombs actually land. Zoom in for maximized pleasure when you really hit your target hard.

You aren't doing any damage with lethality off so there's no damage message. See my previous message about setting up the TA offline or as a custom arena.

ok Bustr made a gunnery map just for this purpose.

there are tons of stationary tanks there at the long gunnery area, however there will be no Icons.

hit them with Ap and they simulate the buildings exploding.

he takes them down.

Now as far as spawns,  se of a1 is 12000 ft. 
nw is 7000 ft, or 6k above base.

go to the clipboard , options, arena setup, fields, and change the country to anything other than bish.

hit your targets amd they will go down,

you get extra ammo and stuff so learn about the settings for the arena and how to change things around.

this will help as you can actually try multiple times without having to land a rearm.

I intend to link up with Yipi at his first opportunity and go over all aspects of bombing.
