Do you still want bombers?

If they added back in bombs maybe just give it to the Galaxy instead of the Liberator. Since the Liberator is now a powerful dedicated Gunship there really is not a reason for the Galaxy to be one too. But imagine the fear people will feel when they see a Galaxy coming, and don't know whether its going to drop soldiers or lots of explosives on their heads lol. Kind of makes it the all purpose support vehicle.

I think the gal would make an excellent bomber when spec'd into one. Only 2-4 crew members, no extra armour (maybe less) and of course highly susceptible to AA it would mean you'd need to fly high (inaccurate bombs are a must really) and you'd probably need an escort.

Also, think of all the new things you could do with a bomber!

Carpet bombs, incendiary, minefields, cluster bombs, carpet/cluster jammer bombs. The possibilities are ENDLESS (probably).

Apart from all the obvious balancing that would have to be done I think it could add a cool new factor into gameplay, e.g. jammer bomb a facility then rush before the turrets come back online.

As much as I love the liberator, I love diversity more. Faction specific diversity would be even nicer. Make something new so we can have even more aircraft in thr skies

To reiterate a bit more on that, it should be more bomber focused. For example, high altitude flying, stealth and can be armored for more payload and slower speed and vice versa

I also like the idea of a single, large unguided bomb on the fighters to turn them into dive bombers.

Limitations - Has no rockets/missiles, costs extra resources, and turn rate is lowered while the bomb is attached?
