So the big guys, He111 and Ju88 could be used on level bombing missions, harbors, industrial areas, troop concentrations, airfields etc.
Ju87 would be great for what it was designed for, pinpoint targets like ships, trains, radar stations, vehicle convois, special gun emplacements at the coast etc.

So basicly pretty much what they had to bomb historically.

It really is a pity red side lacks the Wellington, doing all of this with just one aircraft, the Blenheim, really is poison to a more balanced apporach here. Red is at a severve disadvantage in this regard.
Well, the red side is limited to 4000ft or so due to visibility issues from the front seat (the higher you go, the less time you have to line up the target), but currently only the red side can level bomb.

I've been crying my lungs off for months about the bugs in the Lofte bombsights and yet, it's still unknown to the general public that in this battle of Britain the luftwaffe can't level bomb

Currently, the only way to do damage to area targets is to level bomb with a calculator by your side doing what the bombsight should do by itself, or to use dive bombing Ju-88s.

So if you guys want something to shoot, support my petition to fix the bombsights and if i can blow things up then i'll be happy to take up a formation for you to intercept
