I think a C-130 that can drop MOABs would be a good idea. However, you have to sit on the tarmac for 5 minutes before the bomb is loaded. This would be good in places like Kashan. In the spirit of teamwork, however, this thing is a lumbering target that cannot go above 200 alt. and 400 in speed. A MiG/J-10 can down it using both of it's BVR missiles or 4 of its IR ones.

I don't think anyone is going to want to wait 5 minutes just to drop one bomb. This may as well be a commander-deployed asset.

Waste of time to code this monster bomb. Giving a A10 8 bombs would be better than making this thing and easier too. IMO of course.

i likie the idea

Before El_Vikingo hurts you, this has been suggested. And I don't think it was approved.

the moab isn't very practical. especially in a map like AL Basrah or another City map. why?
collateral damage.

give it a tactical nuke while your at it.

MOABs would need a C-130 which takes time to Model Skin, Program etc Which becomes Wasted Time as the Thing Is too Big for Most PR Maps, itd nly be flying Straight 10 Seconds then its gotta turn.

Thanks workingrobbie for your help. I was just about to dish out some severe beating.

A single huge bomb woulndnt be that handy. For taking out tanks guied missiles and normal iron bombs or JDAM type weapons are better. And for a wider area of effect, if we're really lucky the Dev's might be able to get cluster bombs working for MP.

hehe nice one.. hats off to you, El_Vikingo, your hunting and sorting of already suggested suggestions gets a big from me.

I don't like the idea.

Imagine one C130 dropping a MOAB, wiping out everyone on the other team, except for those, that TK at main over the jet fighter instead of taking it off and shooting the C130 down, before he drops the bomb...

No, just because it exists in real life doesn't mean it belongs in this mod.
