Bomber Vehicle Picture!

Posted: Sat Feb 14, 2004 1:03 pm

While I was checking out Beyond Unreal's hidden demo features coverage. Remember the bomber that Cliffy B. talked about a few months ago? Well it is called the Phoenix and here is the pic as well as a brief description.

As an autonomous remote-bombing device, the Phoenix is capable of delivering staggering amounts of ordnance to a specific target. Hold the Target Painter beam on an object or ground point until it signals target lock. An immediate airstrike follows with the Phoenix releasing its payload directly, if indiscriminately.

Held aloft by four pulse-ramdrive engines, and plated in Duranium armor, the heavily armored Phoenix is ponderous, but effective in combat. The Phoenix makes its presence felt on the battlefield briefly, although a vigilant Raptor pilot or Stationary Turret gunner has been known to take them down.Can't wait to fly this sucker around!

You can't fly it, It's kinda like the Ion cannon, You use a gun to shoot a laser target on the ground and then it will lock on and fly by and drop the bombs on the target.
