How to build a B-52 Bomber in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is finally here. With this new entry in the beloved franchise comes the promised fuse features that help players interact with the environment even more than what was possible before. Thanks to these new mechanics, many players have been getting incredibly creative in the game.

Out of a necessity for transportation, players have been using the new gameplay mechanics introduced in Tears of the Kingdom, as well as some handy Zonai Devices, to fashion some completely custom vehicles. None of these homebrew airships are more interesting than the various bomber planes that have been appearing online recently.

The upside of traveling through Hyrule on a makeshift warplane is it provides players with a decent form of defense as they traverse some risky skylines.

With planes being such a common form of transportation in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, it can be useful to know how to build a B-52 Bomber.

The first thing players will need to secure before constructing their B-52 Bomber is an abundance of the new Zonai Batteries. These types of Zonai Devices can be found at the Gerudo Canyon Mini Stable, Lanayru Sky, and the South Eldin Sky dispensers. These constructs typically consume a lot of power.

The next items that players will need to construct their war machine are fans. These items allow for better air mobility. They can be found at the Great Sky Island and Lanayru Sky dispensers.

Players will also need a way to steer their construct in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Thankfully, there is a part in these dispensers that allows players to take full control of their customized vehicles. These steering sticks can be found at the dispensers in North Hyrule Sky, Tarrey Town, and the Construction Site.

Cannons are also important for constructing a bombing plane in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. They supply the "bomb" aspect of the vehicle. These cannons can be attached to the front bottom of the ship to act as bomb-dropping weaponry. These parts can be found in the dispenser at North Necluda Sky.

The final thing that players will need is a base. The most common ones that many have been using are the wing parts, as they offer a base that is already set to glide. However, more experienced players have made effective bases by fusing logs or lumber boards to form a typical airplane shape.

These constructs truly show the creativity that The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom allows. The way these interesting contraptions work shows why the new title in the Zelda franchise is seen as one of the best games Nintendo has ever put out.
