Each hit takes tickets off the enemy. you can destroy them but it takes afew hits.

it is purpously made this way so the games can last longer instead of blowing them up straight away.

As for the bomb sight dissapearing, i have experienced that also, but its not a reggular occurance.

Hey Spitfire, I've had quite a few times when I've scored a clear hit (even had the deck of the boat burning) and there was no change to the tickets on either team, and even more times when I'm fairly sure I've scored a hit but there's been no change (but only raise the question marks over the ones I'm sure about, my aim isn't perfect ). There are definitely fairly common cases of direct hits with bombs and no changes to tickets.

I unlocked the big 132 rockets for IL-2 and some of the unlocks for the IL-2 is to destroy ground targets, which is impossible because the plane is crap. No more powerfull than a spud gun.

The only thing it is good for is on the CTA games, i'm not sure if someone who is landed counts for a ground target? Should do. I've definately killed more than 5 landed people with an IL-2 and not unlocked anything.

Doe's it matter how you bomb? How high? Dive bombing?

that quite strange, ive hit approx 20 meters to the side of a ship and still took tickets. but then again the bomb size does play a role in it

its visible in level flight for me. disappears if you're locked on to a plane and not a ground target though.

Yes it suppose to be visible in a 90 degree dive and not visible in level flight it's just for bombing.

What he said.

The tickets do lower if you hit the target and it does take a lot to destroy them so the games are not over in 5 mins which I like.

Will rockets work in Strike as well? I just unlocked some for my Yak and the first time I used them I couldn't blow up a single target or take any tickets off the other side, but some of you saying it's happened with bombs too. Is it just a glitch or what.

They should since rockets are for ground attack.
