'''Bomber''' is space vessel role describing combat craft designed to deliver massive amounts of destruction to large or area targets. Their primary methods of delivery are ordnance called [[StarCitizen:Torpedo|torpedoes]] and the namesake [[StarCitizen:bomb]]s. Bombers use these ordnance to attack other vessels and ground targets respectively.

===Sizes===
Bombers come in multiple different sizes.
====Small====
Small bombers are ideal for carrier operations against a variety of targets. Though the curtailed size of their ordnance limits their effectiveness against the truly gargantuan super-capitals, the number of ships fielded together can flexibly scale to tackle many target sizes.
====Medium====
While less flexible than small bombers, medium bomber craft can carry more or a wider variety of ordnance and operate with greater independence.
====Large====
Large bombers are capable of carrying the largest torpedoes and bombs, allowing them to deliver battle- or even war-winning amounts of damage.

===Operations===
Whether ground- or carrier-based, bombers are a naval commander's primary asset in fighting against hard targets. They, however, do not always have the ability to withstand fighter attacks unaided.
====Space====
While [[StarCitizen:capital ships]] may dominate volumes of space and space lanes, bombers are fielded to attack them and their support vessels. Whether stealthy insertion of an [[StarCitizen:Eclipse]] or a massive formation of [[StarCitizen:Retaliator|Retaliators]], their torpedoes cause havoc and destruction within enemy fleets.
====Ground====
Dirt side targets include massed infantry, bunkers, armor columns, and airfields. A bomber may be used to soften up IADS for easier insertion of ground forces or to interdict ground transport supply lines.
