Low Level Bombinggroups

[Captain Hook]

My question is on low level bombing:
At 50' above water I notice my two drones are significantly higher then 100'. Will I still be available on enemy radar?

[The Fugitive]

No, only the lead is counted. And that is in everything.

....and you do know that all bombs must travel 500 feet to arm. That is in any direction.

I thought it was 1000 ft.

Likewise.

  M - O - M---They are gonna be explaining MATH AGAIN...SOON    YUP 1000 Angles and Speed matter...but 1000ft in total(have even heard 800) but the  Math I used was set on 1000ft   Then again...I am from Tenn, just North of Bama...so.. .I am also  South of Kentucky...known for their WINDAGE...

I thunk it was a thousand feet-they must have change it when I wasn't looking

yes I was born in Kentucky-my windage is very good

[lunaticfringe]

500ft will get you killed by you're own bomb.
the bomb has to travel 1000fy straight down or at an angle like slinging it

 I know you werent asking this, per say....but since it was mentioned.    Pythagoreas...figured it out...that Hypotenuse thing you learned in school. Altitude and Range and Speed all figure in. When I bomb Gvs or hangers. Usually its 35 degree above 300mph drop when I see icon. Dont miss much Hangers you can come in Higher/Steeper then again my set up, is to fire Rockets AND Bombs same pass! Level bombing will be just simple Pythagorean Geometry...once speed is stable. Most guys I see doing this are just CARPET Bombing Towns or possible GVS...not much skill involved IMO If you want to kill GVS practice dive bombing OffLine. You can enable the Dive Bomb Precision aid.
