Bombers are cheap units with a low technology requirement. Like fighters, hangar units are required to move bombers between astros. Bombers are armed with missiles.

Advantages[]

Bombers are a relatively cheap unit and are often used against small escort ships such as cruisers. A high missile technology level is required for this unit to be effective, and many players will instead use heavy bombers.

Disadvantages[]

Shielded units larger than a heavy cruiser have the ability to shield-rape bomber fleets.

Miscellaneous[]

The Bomber bears some resemblance to the Cylon War-era Raider from the 2003 Battlestar Galactica.
