The main problem with aircraft is the size of the maps. An F-111 would be pointless since it moves too fast tobe usable in such a small playing area. There's no real decent airfields for larger craft (lets see you get a B-52 or a B-1 in the air from Malden or Everon). Most of the smaller craft used as bombers are multi-role supersonic fighters like the F-16, which again are useless due to thier high speeds. Really, there's only a few aircraft that could even remotely be usable as tactical bombers in the game, the A-10 already included, and possably the A-6 or the A-7. Still, bombing's not an easy task, and the mavericks are infinitely easier to use and probably more deadly because of this. Now a Hind with bombs (yes, the Hind can really carry bombs) would be a different story, since it's d*amn hard to miss when you can just hover over the target in your flying tank that can survive a direct hit from a Stinger missile. If you're worried about the deadliness of bombs, maybe you should consider the fact that most aircraft can already spray a full auto barrage of explosive rockets, and some of the Russian aircraft carry ALOT of rockets.
