How much health does an air strip have?

[Ser Cartoon of House Head]

Just done a game with a bomber, I took out 3 bases pretty much by myself then dropped 4 full loads of 20 x100 pound bombs on ait strip. It shows no health indicators but was doing like 400 damage per run so assume every bomb hit.

This was in a Yer-2 with no modifications. How many runs would it take to destroy it, cause we only lost by what looked like a whisker.

I aint complaining about losing the round, just curious as to how many loads it would take, even though if I had one person with me we would have won easy because not one plane challenged me the whole game. Was fun watching them beneath me flying into each other and calling eachother names in chat.

well, if you look at the Airfields circle above it, it indicates health, and im thinking, if 1 4000 lb destroys half of a REGULAR base's health, and i kinda add them variables to airfield,hermy

I use a Wellington with a 4000 lb, when i drop it, it normaly eats up about 1/6th his health, maybe 1/8th, so it could take as much as 8x 4000lb bombs or more to destroy it, or less, but the airfields are major-damage eaters, so lets just guess at 6x OR 8x 4,000 ib bombs, give or take.

no idea if airfields vary with Tier's.

Sometimes it doesn't have a circle above it, well in this particular match it didn't. I have now unlocked 1000kg bombs, so had 3 of those and 4 200kg bombs equipped so I can take out a base in one run if I can make it there in one piece.

From what I know, in RB its around 10,000lbs of explosives to destroy an airfield, although my information may be old. However, keep in mind, a British 1000lb bomb does more than an American 1000lb bomb by a little bit. The most destructive bomb(while not the biggest, though) is the British 4,000lb Cookie

Ahh right. I am a Russian bomber so it probably does double that :p
