Title: Bomb drop height???!!!
Post by: UN4GIVEN on December 19, 2002, 04:44:12 PM

why is it that you cannot sucsessfully drop bombs form less that 1000 ft (give or take)

In real life bombers  and fighter bombers were dropping bombs from below 30 ft and in the game you cant ((this is wrong)):confused: :mad:

You can successfully drop bombs from less than 1000 feet AGL.  The bombs arm themselves after travelling 1000 feet (both in the vertical and the horizontal).  Of course, the chances of you being detonated along with your target increase significantly the closer you are to the ground when you release...

They did it by using skip bombing, which was not that great of a way to bomb a target.
