JTF-skypickle Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 I am new to this plane and was wondering how to do level bombing. I tried vaious key combinations that are mapped to the bomb sight but nothing happens.
AndyJWest Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 The Ju 88 C-6 doesn't have a bomb-aimers position, or a level-bombing sight. The level bombing versions (e.g. the A-4 that comes with Battle of Moscow) had glazed noses.
Avimimus Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 Also, the bombsight goes down through a periscope - with the optics at the front of the gondola (i.e. the thing with the central gunner in it). If you look on the A-4 you can actually see the lenses/glass. However, in the C-6 there are two 20mm cannon barrels there! So it isn't really the loss of glazing so much as the converting of the gondola to carry two out of your three cannons that is the problem!
MAJ_stug41 Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 C6 is a heavy fighter, it can carry bombs as a matter of convenience. One of the bays is a fuel tank instead.
Bilbo_Baggins Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 AI controlled C6 planes yet still however level-bomb.

Been meaning to ask... why does the A-4 and C-6 carry the same amount of fuel? I thought in real life, the C-6 had more fuel capacity as one of it's bomb bays was converted to a fuel tank? Or did they just put fuel there instead of in the wings?
