The Air Strike is a remote weapon where a group of missiles falls from the sky, striking a selected target on the ground.
Tactics
Don't forget that you can change the direction of the strike with the left and right arrow keys. This is useful for striking Mountainsides causing worms to fly down into the water.
One strike can create a big hole in a bridge, causing worms to drop down; hopefully into the water.
Criticisms, Problems and Weaknesses
The Air Strike can be rendered useless in certain indestructible map settings.
An Air Strike can tend to be inaccurate most of the time unless the path it takes is completely clear.
