i was wondering what the criteria was for setting the control box for the bombs on a 110 when it came to dive bombing or level bombing. do u have to set the switch to "sturz" to actually dive bomb? what degree of attack is considered a dive? 50-90? level? 0-10?

thanks

Hi

I use the 110 a lot for quick runs. I never truly dive in the 110 as it seems it wants to continue to dive all the way to the crash scene.

But load low level fuses and 14 second delay. This is what I use.

Let me know if this answered your question.

let me ask this, does it matter on the bomb controls panel if u set it to stuka or level bombing? if its set on sturz and u drop level will the bomb still work? i am hitting the ships ok, i am haveing problems getting explosions on ground targets. thanks for the help, server is awesome!

Hey!

I've never level bombed in the 87 only the other planes.

I guess you are trying to skip bomb ships?

I have done it as seen on TV. Roll over and dive straight down it. Really just align the floor window up with a ship and push the nose over - that's what I hear the way it was really done.

87?

in a 110, between your feet you have the bomb control box. when u arm the bombs the knob turns to the level bombing fuse setting. if you turn it to the left (sturzi), it is set for dive bombing. i just havent seen any documents whether this is modeled in the game.

Only low level type bombing with the 110 - shallow dive.
This link may help you with the JU87, also a page on the 110 on that site.
