For the Battlepass mission i need to drop 20 Tons worth of TNT, a base gets destroyed from 1.5K tons from what ive read but will the 2720 TNT equivelant still count as 2.5 TONS toward my proggress?

It should, yes. I got the challenge done within bombing 4 bases with Pe-8's 5000kg bomb in one Arcade match.

I’d recommend using larger quantities of smaller bombs. Having just done it myself, if found that the smaller bombers that get the attacker spawns and have more speed are more consistent at actually succeeding in their mission.

Playing air RB, I swapped between the 5.3 B-17 and the B-34 (or is it the B-24? I forget, it’s the one added more recently with two engines). While I could get more bombs off using the B-17, I wouldn’t always survive getting to the target. In the twin engine, I always made it to target and often could do a second run if the game didn’t end fast enough.

I could be wrong as I rarely play air RB, but it seemed like overkill damage wasn’t counted towards the bombing tonnage for the challenge. If I dropped a bomb that could deal 3/4 of a base in one hit, but it hit a base with just 1/4 health, it didn’t count the same as the bomb that hit it first. At least not as far as the challenge is concerned it seemed.

I used, in Arcade, the German bombers (fully spaded incl. crew) ME 264. It's the slowest of the three so I take this one first. Great bomb load.
Second one is the Do 217 M-1. It can take a few hits. Also a great bomb load.
Third one is the Ju 288 C. I take it as high as possible and bombing the remaining bases and airfield. Did the challange in 2 matches, less than half an hour, and only because my team didn't last long enough in the first match. The Ju 288 is a premium but worth the money. I can even chase the odd enemy fighter with it because of its speed. Always fun.
It was an easy challenge.
Good luck.

This is a very valuable tip by the way.

German " Erdkampffluegzeuge " are pretty decent for farming in arcade.
