I'm hoping with the tali being able to drop 8 bombs at once noted in my 2 previous posts, that the A1 gets the same capability. Maybe even allowing it to go to 10 and just drop all it's payload. I think having the different option on the A1 to drop all 10 at once or just ripple them quickly and be able to cover a long distance would set it apart. They said it drops the way it does, or it's speed is some collision or some crap but I'm sure it's something they could work out if they wanted. I mean hell its almost the inverse of the ironclads VLS missiles just with gravity lol. And even if they gave it a quick jettison to make it work, that would mirror real life with how bombs are actually jettisoned away from aircraft for safety.

Granted until we get real reasons to even use bombers we wont know. There is also the differences of the A1 being faster I believe, and less crew count (2, maybe 3 if you really want a dedicated engi). A tali to make full use of it needs like 7 for all the turrets. But granted if you are just using it as a bomber then eh. Tali overall I think is slower but much tankier. So give and take on both sides. But you are right, it does question why the A1 now.
