I believe it 50 strike missions will take forever, well for squads it won't take that long :-P

Keep in mind that Strike games can be set to as little as 3 minutes. ;)
3 minute A-20 dogfights might actually be fun. LOL

Faster way to get through 50 wins in a Strike room. Just play it as a 3 min dogfight. No way you'll be hitting bases to take them out that fast.

Does an Il-2 count as bomber?

IMO it was worth the six hours of playing 3 min strike matches. Made a few new friends along the way too. Thanks to the guys who played and if any of you guys want help getting it too, just send an invite.

they take loads of damage, they eventually destory but each bomb takes away tickets, its all about the tickets, not the physical structure, although you do get 3 *s for destorying a structure / boat etc.

So you just have to win 50 games of strike while in a bomber? Does it have to be ranked matches?

nope any bomber on strike 50 wins, player or ranked.

I'm assuming you guys are all on XBox. There's no party support or ranked or player matches on Ps3.

That said, I played a Strike Mission earlier in an A-20, Got the most air-to air kills, didn;t die and still ran out of bombs.

For those with B17s how effective would you say the AI gunners are?

The AI shot me down a couple of times when I wasn't even going for the Fortress, just as I passed it.

So fifty team wins so everybody on your team will get 1?

no each match you win counts as 1 win.

Say you have completed 20 wins on strike in a bomber and your friend has 15, and you kept playing together to obtain the B-17, you would need to get 30 match wins and your friend would need 35 match wins to unlocks it.

Hope that made sense buddy ;)
