Auto Credit Based on Tonnkatu's Lancaster_Ai

Jundroo gods if you are listening please let us use photos directly from our camera roll for thumbnails I beg cropping is so annoying

Original build here

Swarm version (multiple spawnable at once)here

  • The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed
  • The Lancaster is one of, if not the most iconic British bomber used during WW2, and is known for many things, like night bombing, dam busting, and obliterating teammates. (Wait…) It has a somewhat decent defensive armament, which at the very least can scare you enough to make you not just sit right behind it.

Functional armament

(Spawn as AI in aggressive mode, guns will activate and deactivate depending on if they are in arc)

-1x twin 7.7mm Browning turret (front) (covers the front of the aircraft)
-1x twin 7.7mm Browning turret (dorsal) (covers all areas except for the bottom of the aircraft)
-1x quad 7.7mm Browning turret (tail) (covers the rear of the aircraft)

Notes

  • This craft uses low powered explosive cannons rather than basic ones. It seems to work relatively the same, (with more damage of course) but please let me know if it’s good so I can roll out XML updates for all the other bombers! (Thanks for the idea PlaneLover)
  • For some reason this one seems to be slightly less accurate than the others. It does still hit eventually if you get close though. (Probably has to do with the turret placement)

Enjoy getting obliterated!

    I love it! For some reason it's way more accurate than the others, at least in my experience

    @SoYouDontHaveTo it happens on a few of these due to the gyro, but it usually doesn’t affect the bombers aim

    @TheUltimatePlaneLover I usually just post the tags but with a space between the @ and username before posting, and then remove that space once it’s public to get things done faster. Kind of annoying that it doesn't work apparently.
    (Ill ping after the build is posted from now on)
