The Thunder is a level 1 bomber aircraft; when engaging a target it will fly across it many times, each time dropping five bombs in its flight path which damage the target and any unit nearby, until the target is destroyed. The bombs pack quite a punch, however it is helpless against fighters and go down rather quickly in the face of ground-based anti-air defence. It is most effective in numbers. Its CORE counterpart is the Shadow.
Commander's Handbook[]
| Bomber “THUNDER” Thunder can drop dozens of small bombs at ground targets or surface ships. It cannot fire at other aircraft, so it needs an escort if the enemy has fighters in the air. It flies at high altitudes. |
