Strategic bombers are the tier 3 bombers. Armored, fast and agile, strategic bombers are ideal for attacking the enemy base as well as assassinating valuable targets such as experimentals and ACUs. For their powerful bombs, they're expensive and slow to construct.
Their greatest foe are ASFs. Faster and cheaper to build, a squadron of ASFs can bring them down relatively quickly.
Factional differences[]
UEF Ambassador: The Ambassador is armed with a small-yield nuclear bomb and rear facing AA guns. They are great for new players learning how to command these fearsome bombers. They're also rather armored, making it a challenge for toughened AA grids.
Cybran Revenant: The Revenant, while weaker than its counterparts, It does have stealth technology, making it harder to be detected for those without a good radar setup. Their bombs are weaker but have a larger blast radius, allowing it to devastate larger areas. Like the Ambassador, the Revenant also has rear AA guns for self-defense.
Aeon Shocker: The Shocker is equipped with a smart bomb, that can slightly guide itself towards its target, allowing it to easily hit slow moving targets; The damage is higher but with less dropoff as a result of precision bombing. While it lacks AA, it does have flares to throw off incoming fire but have been removed in Forged Alliance, even though they persist in the unit description.
Seraphim Sinntha: The Sinntha is a marriage between the Ambassador and the Shocker but with no AA. Tough and very powerful, Sinnthas have the highest damage of its class but also come with an afterburner to allow it to speed away from incoming fire.
