Bomber or heavy air support....or even a mega troop transport 2.turrets on top, bottom, and sides (front sides as there are thrusters in the rear) 3. At least the same armour as a tank 4.ummmm probably not a full orbital 5. One pilot, one copilot (to operate the bombing etc) EDIT: stupid iOS autocorrect
The Assault DS should be able to shoot it out of the sky. Think of it as a B-52 V a Fighter Jet. |

It can't destroy a tank because it has a small turret. It's like an LAV shooting at a tank. I honestly believe that there should be a version of the assault with a very low HP and limited slots, but with a large turret. Or, they could add a medium turret for DS only... |

No no no. Everything must have a weakness. With bombers, it should be assault dropships. |

The Assault DS should have absolute Air Superiority. The bomber should only have one seat. No turrets, devastating effects. The normal DS has more troop capacity than both of them, but it has little protection. This is how I believe it should be. |

That should also be in place, but it needs to be able to be taken out by the assault DS, so that they have something besides infantry hunting. |
