History

With more and more larger warships, more and more military industries, and bigger armies, it got quickly important to have something to counter to destray these. But air to air and sufface to air (AAM/SAM) missiles getting better, it has been necessary to make it fly high enough to secure it from canons of SPAA and AAA. To counter the missiles, the bomber comes up with numerous and well placed and powered counter measures to make the missiles lose tracks. It's propellers permit the "Strike Spirit" to be way less captable by IR missiles and only Radar Missiles will be a real danger because of it's large size and metalic blades.

Even with this, the bomber survivability will be unequalled.
