3 Bombs vs 1 MEC AA, and the AA is still operational, video for proof. I don't even know what's going on any more.

Welcome to Bijar and super strong AA emplacement.

This is one of those circa 1.2 buffs to AA FOB emplacements because of people mad that LGs were splashing them.

Unbelieveable. 3 direct hits and still operational. :shock:

I would understand such strongness to keep the AA emplacement alive but atleast, every soldier should be dead dead dead.

Is the AA emplacement so strong or are the dropped bombs bugged?

It is bug. Some times bombs lose vertical bomb blast radius.

Why is it also that bombs don't make people dead dead... Dropping a bomb on an infantry squad shouldn't result in revives...

Welp no idea what happened there as a direct hit should have killed it:

Checked hellfires as well while i was at it as they seem to have similar issues. Increased splash damage of both vs armed emplacements (AA, TOW, HMG)

This also happened to me yesterday on Khamisyah I believe. 3 bombs on AA placement still alive, the guy bled out though. Once on Saarema stat. AA survived a LG missile, right on target.

Oh yes, i forgot to report this "Bug" on my bug collections. AA emplacements survive by bomb. Even if its a direct hit. Only the guy die, the AA still up.

We see here that the guy behind the AA and the guy left on the hilltop survived 3! direct hits.
The 2nd guy wasn't close, so maybe he wouldn't die from the first bombblast but surviving Nr. 2 and 3 at such close range??!

The bombs are definitely bugged.

Bombs are not, AA emplacement is just unrealistically strong because of anti-CAS people getting their way too easily.
