Re: Maritime Strike Bombers

It occurrs to me that we have all forgotten something very important
about
Maritime Strike Bombers.  While thinking of ships and fighters, we have
overlooked
the fact that a fully loaded B-52 is just as massive as an Osa-II patrol
missile
boat (at least I think an Osa-II is only 250 tonnes in displacement).

In this light, it is not unreasonable for a maritime strike bomber to
have a mass
4 or 5.
