Abilities
- Bombards hostile land armies within 25 km every 15 minutes, even while moving.
- Covert: invisible to enemies unless an air detector reveals it; firing reveals it temporarily.
- Only Anti-Air can return fire against it.
Counters
B2 Bomber has no hard counters and is not a hard counter to anything, it trades on raw stats.
Hard-countered units take extra losses and cannot retaliate against the unit countering them. See Units#Counters for the full matrix.
Production
Trained at the Aircraft Factory. Build time, cost and upkeep depend on the tier (see Stats).
In combat B2 Bomber expends Guided Bombs. Ammunition is crafted in batches at ammunition buildings (Ammunition Factory, Ordnance Plant); keep the army supplied to stay effective in prolonged fighting.
Movement and transport
As an air unit it can fly over any terrain, land or sea, within its air range.
Stealth and detection
B2 Bomber is a covert air unit: an army made only of covert units is invisible to enemies unless a air detector reveals it. Fighting (or firing) reveals it temporarily.
Air detectors: Recon Drone, AWACS, Strategic Radar.
Detection is rolled once per detector scan, every 10 minutes; a successful roll reveals the army for 30 minutes. Fighting always reveals it. The research focus Detection Radius widens detection ranges. See Stealth and Detection.
Tips
- Covert until an air detector reveals it or it fires; bombardment reveals it temporarily.
- It hits land armies only, and only Anti-Air can return fire, strip the Anti-Air first or accept the losses.
