Hey, after recently upgrading my system's RAM, I'm now able to Fly 'craft without wanting to kill myself over Latency issues...

Anyway, when browsing through the different Aircraft available to me now, I noticed that the F-15 "Strike Eagle" has two seats, is it actually possible to get someone in there with me???


Thanks in advance

Yes. It is a bombing seat, where the passenger uses laser guided missiles that lock onto ground targets.

All the bombers are two-seaters.  SU-30, SU-34, F-15 are all capable of holding two people, one as the pilot who can release bombs and fire the guns, and a co-pilot who can fire laser-guided missiles.  The missiles are the most-powerful weapon in the game, so learn to use them correctly.

The second seat belongs to the Weapons System Officer. He's called a "Wizzo" in Air Force lingo. A good pilot is conscious of his wizzo. A good Strike Eagle team will easily acheive the top slots in a round if the pilot is smart enough to stay alive. Often when I'm the pilot, I usually get outscored by my Wizzo.. lol... I like to let him do all the work.

But a bomber is mincemeat if there's a half decent pilot on the map. It's like a tank vs. an APC: when I see a bomber I think "yay free kill(s)!".

On the other hand, those missles are truly awesome. Get your fighter pilot to keep the enemy jets grounded and you've got yourself four square miles of easy kills. Solo-LMG'ing is easy too, just fly slightly up, do it from a reasonable distance, and pay attention to your speed. When you do it the jet carries on as if you bailed.. so it looses speed and height quickly.

What does the ram have to do with anything, 2nd seat was always there.

TV from 2nd seat is good for taking out UAV and shite... just get the flyer to

line it up.

whoa whoa whoa...... an apc can easily beat a tank. 1 rocket, back outta view, then the second rocket and repeated cannon shots. boom dead tank. i almost never lose against a tank with that tactic

you would have to be a pretty shitty tank driver for that to happen, destruktion. but then again, most apc drivers i encounter are idiots and fire their missile off at first sight, making it pretty easy to evade. ANND back on topic, i find the best map for the bomber is Oman, due to the fact the enemy F35s suck, no AA vehicles, and if the Mig29 gives decent support in taking down jets, aaand if you have a decent enough pilot that stays at high altitude, you can have quite a round as a gunner. plus, there are usually noobs in the F35s, because the good pilots are flying the Mig. if you are the gunner there are no vehicle targets in sight, just aim the target reticle at an enemy base, fire away, and you will usually get a kill or four. no lock needed. its like using a very powerful ant tank rocket. dealing with vehicles, a good pilot will set the gunner up with a straight, shallow dive at the tank/apc/car, and let the gunner nail it. even if the missile doesnt hit directly, the splash damage will almost always get it. i can go on and on about useless facts for bombers, but i will spare you all.

a lot of times the laser missiles glitch out, maybe Dice punshing the jet whores(poor us). sometimes the missiles, like butts said, lock but then veer off, someetimes you reload and only get one missile to fire, sometimes they dont lock on to targets, and sometimes they dont fire at all,etc. sometimes it fixes itself after awhile, but other times theres nothing you can do but try to get the pilot to crash the jet and get a new one (yea right).

It's fun to switch to the other seat and use the LGM and watch peoples reactions, "WTF, solo bombing, hax!"

I'll have to find my screenshot of that one...
