    • Nuclear bombers and range

      So I have been thinking about this for quite some time now. But Why are Max nuclear bombers range so small?
      Like a B-52 when it first rolled out, had a combat range of 8,800 miles!. The nuclear bombers maxed have a range of 560miles (900k) a lot smaller than the b-52s. Now obviously the game is set in this period, However b-36 peacemakers, had ranges of 10,000 miles, If I am correct. They came into service in about 1949 or maybe its 1950.

      Now here is the funny part. The level 3 bomber, is a B-47 Stratojet. But guess what, although in game it says it has a range of 560 miles, really it has a range of 3,870 Miles.

      So It seems the ranges have been nerfed, so I was thinking, why not unnerf them?

      Just this has been bothering me for some time, and this week the forums seemed a little quieter than usually..

      The range of atomic bombs is according to the atomic bomb in 1945, Ocean.

      Hello Strange.


      Ocean said "Im not talking about the radius of the Atomic bombs.." This is not true.


      Then, I "quoted" this: ·But Why are Max nuclear bombers range so small?"

      Okay, well the Atomic Radius, is the blast radius. How much boom goes all over the place. That is not mentioned anywhere. And that is not at all what I am talking about. I am talking about the range of the nuclear bombers..

      A level 3 nuke bomber here ( B--47) has a range of 560miles.
      When really, a B-47 with a combat load, has a range of 3870 miles...

      I am taking about the bomber range, not the blast radius.
      The blast radius, I dont think has ever been mentioned here on the forums

      This would need an update.
