StarCitizen:Bombers

Bombers are designed to deliver massive amounts of destruction to large or area targets. Their primary methods of delivery are ordnance called torpedoes and the namesake StarCitizen:bombs. Bombers use these ordnance to attack other vessels and ground targets respectively. Template:Data table

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 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.
