Use Fighter-Bomber Combos Unless you are within 1500km of the c3 you want to take out. Make a wing with 1000 Fighters of 250 Quality. Use 710 Bombers of 100Q. Ammo 100 Quality. You should have enough bombers in that Air Wing to destroy all the interceptors of a level 3 c3 and have enough bombers left over to clear all defenses too.
If within 1500km, use high Quality drones 150-200 and 250 Quality Fighters with 100 Quality Ammo, this will make your Fighter-Drone wing fighting Quality good and will reduce your losses.
Bombers are expensive, but very useful.
When clearing defenses If you can afford the extra wing only) For ease I would use only bombers. There are other added benefits to this than meets the eye. I'll let you figure it out. Make a bombing wing with 710 Bombers 100 Quality. Again use 1000 Attack drones 250 Quality to avg the unit fighting quality against the 100 Quality ammo. Attack defenses with ONLY the bombers ignore the fact that the drones are even there.
This is for an air attack, not a ground assault, things change in that case, in the current c3 setup you must destroy forts, and precision bombs suck major azz against forts. LBC missiles work fine, but ideally, you'd want to send in a ground unit to attack forts if you wanted to be cost effective. It is almost free when considering other weapons and ammo used. |
