Imagine a squad of 10 bombers flying over a battle along the flight ceiling. Most people are probably going to give up and log off after repeatedly dying immediately when they step outside.

The shrike was in the air faster, and at that point the bombers life got hard. Its just on pubs where the best defense was a few guys crowded with launchers around the pad that bombing was easy. Same would prolly go for Liberator vs Skeeto.
