Accurate bombing is easy, you just need to take a few minutes for your speed to level out, and hold the mark key for 20+ seconds, instead of the required two. From the time you start letting your speed level out, to the time you drop your bombs, you should only turn using the f6 view.
The real problem is that, at the very best, you can hope to get two, maybe three targets in a pass, and not enough of the same type to actully have any effect on the field/factory. A single pass takes as long as a full jabo sortie, and to actually disable something will take from two to four passes.
The problem isnt so much bomber's ability to cause damage, but rather, the ability of jabo's to cause signfiicantly more damage than bombers, with more flexibility. The way targets are set up now REQUIRE the old pinpoint bombing. The new bombing system is quite good, it's only deficiency is that targets are arranged to make carpetbombing hit nothing but open ground.
