Here is how a well flown VHF would look like on a bomber's screen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohavsDuQ9To

If you know how to fly the thing right, you won't get hit.
All people need to keep in mind is that just because you've got a shiny new ship, Class 10/9 weapons and an Armour Upgrade MkVIII doesn't make you an awesome fighter pilot. No matter how big your ego is, your not the best if you say your the one saying it.

90% of the time the problem is the person.

This is remembered and applied by evryone and you'l see alot less of "Admin Notice"

ok let me give you a fighter setup to kill a bomber (im a bomber myself... so sham on me)


Get
1x Neutralizer missile
1x Paralyzer missile
1x Mini Razor
3-4xHeavy damage Codes (you'll need at least 1k hull +) / purple godess (you need to aim well and get behind the bomber almsot all the time)


launch missiles at point blank... that wipes shield (reason for 1 of each missile is that they together will kill 1 lvl 10 fighter shield, and ull get 70 shots instead of 35)... shot razor the second after your enemies shield is down

Go on bashing his shield untill hes out of bats.... go on slowly eating up hull....

IF YOU CAN STAY BEHIND THE BOMBER AT LEAST 80% OF THE TIME YOU WILL WIN....

at this point bomber got 2 choices.... Run or die......


This tactic can be used with any fighter supporting at least lvl 9 weapons (require the use of magmahammer/firekiss to give enough hull damage)



any questions??? of course.... this will leave you with a lowered fighter vs fighter capability, but at least you should in a eagle, be agle to knock out a VHF/Bomber

.... given that you actually can fly your ship

i know, but you get high refire and m/s, so your more likely to hit with a lot.... thats why i included them


just make sure to practice your missile hit ratio.... that was were i failed against fighters (ps i used a sabre)

Really, they are terrible weapons, JUst use your regualr faction gun.

Most of them get better speed and damage. the high refire is a liability, as it KILLS your efficency

Class 10 dont have a huge edge over class 9. Just get the two EMP missiles, which might also make some guys panic like OMG MA SHILD IS DWN. Then, just use any good hullbusters you can get and rip his armor.

Signed. Looked to me like the Eagle's goose was cooked.
