Swarm version (multiple spawnable at once) here

B-52H variant here

  • The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed. This is done by giving them the ability to shoot back at you >:). All bombers have a semi realistic armament with semi realistic ranges, muzzle velocities, and firing arcs.
  • (Wiki)
    The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is an American long-range, subsonic, jet-powered strategic bomber. The B-52 was designed and built by Boeing, which has continued to provide support and upgrades. It has been operated by the United States Air Force (USAF) since the 1950s, and NASA for nearly 50 years. The bomber can carry up to 70,000 pounds (32,000 kg) of weapons and has a typical combat range of around 8,800 miles (14,200 km) without aerial refueling.

Gun layout

(Spawn as AI in aggressive mode, guns will activate and deactivate depending on if they are in arc/range.)

Tail
- 1x quad Browning .50 machine gun turret
(Range: 1800m)

Notes

  • Both this and the TU-95 have a reload system for the guns, as well as flares that make them a bit more interesting to fight
  • I had no clue the B-52H used to have a Vulcan strapped onto it before now and it's absolutely hilarious
  • Vietnam roleplay is now possible. cool.

    @TheUltimatePlaneLover definitely! I got a B-50 already through a suggestion, the B-29 from the first ever DB post, and your TU-4 works perfect too

    @foury bro I was actually considering making like a smoke trail for the engines or something with nozzles but thought it’d look really bad, that looks amazing though!

    @TemporaryReplacement i added rockets and attached it to a pylon and the engine fuselage so it wont move anywhere
    adds the realism of the B-52 soaring through the sky at high altitude

    shot at 6000m
