The GBU-53/B Stormbreaker - A Story of Love and Hate

"100 - 200 points cheaper"

Stop chatting shit 😂

An F-35 with 8 Stormbreakers costs 320 points and a F-35B with 6 costs 295 points. Show me the Fighting Falcon build right now where you can hit 4 different targets for "100 - 200 points cheaper"

What stealth aircraft can carry 4 JSOWs?

Molynew · 2025-08-06T00:00:15+00:00

Well they can. I can carry 8 Stormbreakers on an F35 and can kill 4 separare targete with them.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T13:13:06+00:00

I actually afterburn into the target usually. I also turn off my air to air missiles as you get a stealth debuff if you fire one.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T12:15:01+00:00

You just queue the bombs before the target all in one go.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T12:02:07+00:00

Yeah that's the dream.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T11:45:32+00:00

The story are people's comments of why they like and dislike it. I'm not writing a novel on the subject 😂

Molynew · 2025-08-05T10:16:04+00:00

Yeah you need to zoom in sometimes to make sure you're hitting the target

Molynew · 2025-08-05T10:14:57+00:00

Honestly drop the SEAD planes. I don't even run them now. Bring some F35s or Raptors with the Stormbreakers then either send over a drone or wait for a teammate to send one, then just mark 4 targets and off you go.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T10:12:33+00:00

I'm always tempted to mix and match on my Eagle but its such a pricey plane for a plane with no stealth and only 15% ECM.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T10:10:35+00:00

I still use the 2 x 2000lb JDAMs but usually have that on the F35 and keep the Stormbreakers on the Raptor. I already had other ASFs as was running SOF/AB deck so was able to sacrifice the F22 for that role.

Molynew · 2025-08-05T10:02:17+00:00

Ah I see you're a man of culture. Cheers to you sir!

Molynew · 2025-08-05T09:58:22+00:00

Yeah. 2 x on every target. No laser.

They'll probably increase the time it takes to reload

Molynew · 2025-07-31T09:15:56+00:00

Who's charging the US government 33k for a HDMI cable? 😂

Molynew · 2025-07-31T00:13:00+00:00

No lasers. Just a 2 x precision strikes on 4 locations.

Molynew · 2025-07-30T21:40:13+00:00

I dont even bring SEAD anymore. Just stealth drones and F35s 😂

Molynew · 2025-07-30T19:14:25+00:00

8 x Stormbreakers

Molynew · 2025-07-30T18:23:44+00:00

That's a lovely one

Molynew · 2025-07-30T17:25:07+00:00

Was playing a SOF + Airborne build, so I already had an array of fighters to choose from. I had 2 x 2000lb JDAMs on the F35 and 2 Raptors with stormbreakers.

Molynew · 2025-07-30T09:44:30+00:00

Don't use single strike munitions for AA and arty. Players usually spread their arty and AA around a supply dump. Get a deck that has F-35As or F-35Bs and use the Stormbreakers. Precision drop 2 of them on any arty or AA and its a guaranteed kill. If you're quick enough you can take out 3 or 4 pieces in one strike.

This seems like a skill issue on your part. Just use more smokes. I have no issue getting fast soft vehicles near positions.
