Include a bombing target range in the test flight for aircraft

[Thatz 635]

Currently learning to drop bombs on a specific target/spot take time and practice in game to get used to. The angle of approach, when to drop, where the bomb will go after being dropped etc. There are alot of factors to take into account when using a dive bomber or any bomber for that matter.

Many nations during WWII and even currently use Bombing ranges some with targets others with just open fields.

Purpose: Would help players test out vehicles and how to drop bombs accurately before getting into an actual game, so they can understand how the plane/bombs will act etc.

YES, good lord. Not only is this a no-brainer, but why aren't there shooting targets too? And I don't mean a few vehicles you can plink at in one or two passes before they blow up, but dummy targets that don't get destroyed or infinitely respawn so you can properly practice. Air, ground and naval (as appropriate), for all vehicles in their respective test modes.

I support this idea. the game needs a special mode for skill practice, currently we only have three options:

(1)-Map "test vehicle" (2)- Custom map in singler player (3)- AB/RB

but none offer a comprehensive and easy way to test our vehicles and skills. In a custom map, to test a bomber you must first travel the entire map to the objective, which will take you several minutes. That is not pleasant at all.

I think for a mechanic about a decade old, it needs some revisions, such as the bombing target, maybe some enemy fighters who will fight back or even respawn, or the ability to change loadouts in the test drive without leaving.

I'd like to very much see a revised test range in General. +1

Excellent idea, would be vary useful for helping to learn bombing/CAS techniques.

+1 This would be awesome.
