==Heavy Bommer==

As their name implies, Heavy Bommers are one of the largest available Bommers in use of the Orks built for sustained heavy bombardment. Due to their size, Heavy Bommers can carry a much bigger payload then their smaller cousins and much bigger [[Grenades & Explosives#Bomm|Bomms]]. They are also far more noisier, which complements the Orkish aerial bombardment doctrine of BIG BADDA BOOM! The main problem with Heavy Bommers is [[What|there aren't many Orks willing to pilot them]], either because the controls are unusually small or the cockpit is cramped. Combine these factors with the universal Ork instinct to fight face-to-face, most of the crews inevitably consist of Gretchin.

Sometimes of course, the bombs malfunction and accidentally blow up ''inside'' the Bommer creating a spectacular fireball of [[Fail]].

In 7th Edition of [[Imperial Armour Volume 8]], Heavy Bommers are like the Fighta-Bommers only bigger and slower with more dakka and ordnance. Enough defensive weaponry is on this thing to see off waves of interceptor aircraft, while it carries enough ordnance weapons to pretty much wipe out an entire formation on turn one. Just one of these can spit out enough [[Supa-Rokkits|supa-rokkits]] to wipe a [[Leman_Russ_Battle_Tank|Leman Russ]] company off the gameboard or drop enough [[Grot_Bomms|grot-bombs]] to turn six full sized [[Hormagaunt|'Gaunt]] Broods into a few scattered bugs led by a lonely [[Hive Tyrant]] who will be blown apart by your [[Lootas]] next turn. It also comes with eight (8!) Big Shootas mounted along the flanks, which can shoot at different targets.

Now they have a shiny new model (in AT scale) with the release of [[Aeronautica Imperialis]]!

Since the [[Forge World]] 40k-scale Ork Bommer was only in production for about a minute, let's hope that Ork players see a plastic version of this beast (and its variants) in a future Orktober.
