Basically a slow, heavily armored DropShip that, instead of shooting missiles, drops bombs on the targets below, sort of like carpet-bombing.
This DS would be harder to turn and harder to "knock-off" to one side by AV fire because of it's mass.
I'm thinking maybe it should be a Minmatar DS? Because of the explosive nature of the Minmatar? If that can't be done, let it be any race's ship...
No passenger seats, 6 bombs (500 damage each, 6m splash radius) per drop and a 30 second reload time for them.
What do you think about this idea?

drop 3000 damage to instagib everything below.
move away. repeat.
somehow I'm finding myself unfond of the idea.
It would be hard to "move away" because of the slow top speed of the ship. If there's lots of AV underneath, you will most likely die.

If the AV was underneath they are already dead. You might find an amsent who can survive three of the impacts from above. But in order to make this concept more than a sick joke aimed at dropship pilots the blast radius would have to be huge.
Sry, I didn't mean directly underneath, just nearby, shooting swarms and forges...

The idea of it being a dropship with bombs is to avoid adding new vehicles (planes) just for this sort of playstyle to be implemented.
If we could have planes, that would be great.
