air strikes

Are you sure it wasn't an IL-4 level bomber?

I looked it up again- I think it was a IL-4 bomber- would that result in a 7.0 wait? Thanks

If it is a level bomber unit class, or a transport plane then it will take a very long time to appear. You are meant to pre-programme the things on the bombardment screen before game start after all!.

In reality - such types are strategic assets that are pre-planned and not randomly available at the whim of an end user Lt Col. We allowed a delay for those who forgot to pre-programme their assets, but in reality if you forgot then you should not see them in the game. The delay is there to stop any such whining.

Level bombers are really only in there for scenario designer effects - they go to a rough area and blindly unload ordnance. They do not spot things like strike air does.

I just assumed it was a IL-2 in question since the title of this post was " air strikes" my bad

Level bombers i rarely use.

Once in a very long awhile, i might buy a sortie of level bombers,and use them to bombard known arty parks though
