Dive bombing

Dive bombing is a military tactic where an aircraft rapidly descends steeply toward a target to deliver precision airstrikes. By diving directly at the target, the plane increases its speed and accuracy, minimizing the time for the enemy to respond. This technique is often used to hit specific facilities or vehicles with bombs, missiles, or guns, maximizing destructive impact while reducing collateral damage. The pilot maintains control throughout the steep descent, and the aircraft typically pulls up shortly before reaching the ground to avoid crashing. It’s a high-risk, high-reward method favored for its effectiveness in battlefield strikes.
