War - Thunder Bombing Chart Free

Static charts get outdated. Three patches from now, Gaijin might change base HP again. Here are the two best free resources that auto-update:

A typical free community chart looks like this:

| Altitude (m) | Bomb type | TOF (s) | Lead for 400 km/h (m) | Lead for 500 km/h (m) | |--------------|-----------|---------|------------------------|------------------------| | 1000 | 250 kg | 6.2 | 689 | 861 | | 1500 | 250 kg | 8.0 | 889 | 1111 | | 2000 | 500 kg | 9.5 | 1056 | 1320 |

Some advanced charts include:

War Thunder does not calculate damage purely by the weight of the bomb, but by the TNT Equivalent. Different nations have different explosive chemistries. war thunder bombing chart free

Quick Reference (Average TNT Ratio):

Pro Tip: Drag coefficients matter. A streamlined 1,000kg bomb (like on the Ar 234) drops differently than a "fat" 4,000lb Cookie bomb on a Lancaster.

In War Thunder Air Realistic Battles (ARB), bombing is often treated as a secondary objective, yet it remains one of the most consistent methods for grinding Vehicle Research Points (RP) and Silver Lions (SL), especially at lower to mid-tiers.

However, random bombing is inefficient. To maximize your rewards, you need a "bombing chart"—a mental or physical guide to understanding Base HP, Bomb Efficiency, and Target Priority. Static charts get outdated

Let’s say you are flying the famous Pe-8 (USSR) at BR 5.3 in Realistic Battles. According to the chart, you need 1,000 kg TNT.

Now take the B-17E Flying Fortress (USA) at BR 5.0. It carries 6 x 500 lb bombs. Those 500 lb bombs have low explosive filler (approx 120 kg TNT each). Total TNT = ~720 kg. You need 1,000 kg. Result: You will fail to kill a base.

The Fix: In the B-17, take the 8 x 1000 lb bomb loadout. Each 1000 lb bomb has ~240 kg TNT. 8 x 240 kg = 1,920 kg TNT. That kills the base and damages the next one.

Believe it or not, low-tier bombs are sometimes better. War Thunder does not calculate damage purely by

Some free resources disappeared when Gaijin changed bomb damage models or flight physics, so players constantly search for updated ones.
