i think mjolnir is the right player to answer this:) good in bobmer and also good in gb.
when you are in gb and bomber is flying from front directly to you. you shoot missiles when he is really close so he has no time to avoid them.
and to speed. gb on thruster has 130, missile 145 that is 275. more as fighter/bomber on thruster.
i was using 2 kusari missile turrets on my afa gb. and they are the best again fighters/bombers. because damage to hull is one thing, but 2-3 hits, and ship is without guns. and what will make 95 percent of enemies when they loose guns? leave fight. becase they ar nothign more as flying target.
and missiles vs tranports/trains. again, their weapons are gone when yo u(sub) target them and you still can have enough guns to destroy that ship. (when you mount 2 missile turrets and 4 normal turrets)
