a few times during strike games i have been told NO jets but the other team have b17 and can end all your teams tickets in a very short time if you dont have a b17 on your team how you supposed to stand a chance ???

also what has put me off strike games is that most of the time the guys on my team all went fighters and soon as the games started they all fly off to grab as kill im then left on my own as the only bomber by the time i get to the targets (if i make it that far) the other teams fighters are buzzing me and 9 times out of 10 i dont even get to drop payload before spiraling to earth in a ball of flames

for me the arado is a valid choice for strike if not then whats the purpose of having it in the game i mean its not like anyone is going to choose it fo a dog fight
About the B17's: true. They're overpowered, and I hope they're a bit more accessible when the patch comes which enables SP unlocks. The B17 however can still be taken down decently, despite it's gunners, whereas the Agado can only be taken down with other jets, which leads to games where only jets will be used. Not my idea of a nice IL2 game. I have no idea why the designers added the jets, since they're in a whole other category from the piston planes. If I wanna fly jets I'll play Ace Combat. Somehow though, people fail to understand how jets are extremely game-deteriorating.
