Albatross

Overview
The Albatross is the Resistance's equivariant of the Thor. However the Albatross is faster and doesn't have attacks in the normal sense, but has a "bombing ability" that can be used once, then the Thor requires resupplying and refueling at an airfield. The bombs deal less damage than the Thor. The Albatross has more armor and health compared to the Thor.

Advantages

 * Heavy armor and high health make the Albatross very difficult to take down without large numbers of AA weapons or fighters.


 * Armor is thicker than Thor's.
 * Faster than Thors. The Albatross is fast enough to reach a platoon of retreating army or fleeing from most AA weapons. But Fighters can still catch up.

Disadvantages

 * Bombs do less damage than Thors, requiring 4 Albatross to wipe out a production facility in one bombing run.
 * Albatross can only bomb once, meaning that they are unable to do much in prolonged engagements, which are closer to the purpose of the fighters.
 * Refueling takes a long time, meaning that Albatrosses are vulnerable to counterattack when your they are refueling.
 * Albatrosses are as expensive as Thors. Losing one is very expensive, and takes a long time to replace. Their mere presence already weakens your ground army, as an airfield of Albatrosses requires 24 CP, enough for 6 Jaguar tanks.
 * Albatrosses s are defenseless against fighters. They cannot bomb them or shoot them and are easily followed back to their airfield by the fighter's superior speed and mobility.
