R1Lawsy Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Hey All, Trying to get past the instant action ground attack mission... got a few questions for those in the know.... I think when dive bombing i am below the altitude for the cluster bombs to disperse and they just hit the deck hard - Could this be the case or is it something else? Also, the release bomb light comes on, then almost instantly the exit attack light (on the right) so close together that you can barely see between them. I am not diving over 6 - 700 kph and max dive angle is around 45 degrees.... And finally - I really think dive bombing in the mig is only good to get you killed so, i saw all the excellent vids of level bombing.... does anyone have a tutorial or and sort of how too? Spent the whole of Sunday flying the Mig... was one of the best Sundays i can remember.... Edited March 7, 2016 by R1Lawsy Typo

HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
WinterH Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Dive bombing does work but it's difficult. According to threat level it can indeed be suicidal but it should work fine for the convoy in that mission. However, level bombing runs really tend to work better with clusters. Even a perfect run kills 4-5 vehicles usually, so you will need to strafe some with gun and tell your wingmen attack as well.
