If I can gently and slightly disagree with at least some of the comments. Yes, when used singly or with just a few planes, level bombers don't do much. But if used in massed formations - say B-52's dropping HE cluster munitions on infantry - even dug-in infantry - they can be devastating. I played a West vs. Iran scenario set in 2007 where massed US B-52's unloaded HE cluster ordinance on Iranian Rev. Guards dug in around a river-line, and the results were startling. Probably 30-40% Iranian casualties. Again, this was a tightly packed mass of planes (about 8) saturating a swath of the map. I also destroyed an Iranian tank column on a road using B-1's unloading AP Cluster bombs. This was, I should add, after all Iranian local AD units had been plastered by UAV's and SEAD's.
