So I'm nearly a master at bombing in the Su-30, but I just can't seem to hit squat in the Su-34 and especially the F-15. I hardly ever fly the Su-34 to begin with since I rarely play Kubra, but when I do, I'm on and off with it. There will be times when I can hit everything, and then other times when I hit nothing.

As for the F-15, I just can't seem to hit anything. I use the display and I still can't hit anything. The display is very helpful with the Su-30 and 34, but when it comes to the F-15, I must be reading it wrong or something...

Any tips on bombing with the F-15 and the Su-34?
Thanks And I guess I could give out some karma if your tips help me out a lot

well you have 5 bombs, the chance of hitting something is pretty big.

Dive a little, release bombs, pull up, look backwards and see where your bombs land. If you notice they land all behind the target, you need to unleash them sooner.

The problem with maps like Kubra is that there are a lot of obstacles, the same on Oilfields close to flags but less. I'm pretty sure that with those two jets, you can hit everything that is in the open, but when they stand close to dumpsters, buildings, your bombs probably land on that.

So: Dive a little, look behind you (Pull up first!) and try to get a clear way for your bombs (so there is open space before your target. I think then you hit almost everything.

DO NOT AIM WITH THE BOMBING RETICLE!  Drop your bombs a little before the target, on the reticle,  and you will never miss.

are you flying straight when you bomb or are you diving down

The most fun way to bomb is dive bombing. I do it on Oman a lot... just fly high enough so you don't see the ground, then fly straight down towards a grey flag, and let the bombs go.

Maybe not the most effective way of bombing, but definitely the most fun IMO.

yer with the F-15 u got to go by instincts, just trial and error everyone builds there own techniques you just got to find yours... like toiletsex finds it best to bomb straight down... and yer looking back too see where your bombs land may give you a clear indication of were u may be going wrong... but sometimes bombing comes down too pure luck! so hope that can help u lol

I do a little dip. I don't go way high in the sky and then drop straight down, I just fly at a medium height, dip down and release, then pull back up. But if I'm too low and I know that if I dip and drop I'll blow myself up, I usually do an earlier release and just go straight and I can still hit them.




I guess like someone said I just need to practice more with the other bombers and get my technique down for those. But the Su-30 is just so tempting since it's the only one I can use

Try flying level at 3000ft and drop them.

1. The steeper the dive angle the more accurate the bombs will be plus its harder for a stinger or AA vehicle to target you if you come down from directly above. 
2. Learn to switch to your external views after the release so you can see where your bombs hit.  External views are also very helpful in a dogfight as it gives a much wider field of view and it also gives you the ability to look behind you.
