Level bombing in Aces High II is not rocket science, but it does require some planning, patience, and an understanding of the systems used in order to be successful. The purpose of this write up is to shed some light on techniques that can make you a successful level bomber. These are certainly not the only or even the best methods to accomplish your level bombing mission, but they do work for me!  

Choose Your Target

The first step in planning a bomber mission is to choose your target. You will use your situation awareness and your own personal goals to decide where you can successfully bomb and where you can help influence the battle. The most common targets are the airfield your country is trying to capture or the airfield that is attacking your airfield. Other popular targets include vehicle bases, enemy HQ, and supply depots. With an effective strat system, factories and cities should also become popular targets. The chart on the next page shows the various structures, what it takes to destroy them, how long they are down, and what happens when they are destroyed. Note the down times are the maximum down times if the base is not re-supplied. Drone re-supply convoys are constantly running and the enemy can re-supply a field from nearby bases so you will rarely see items down as long as is indicated in the chart.
