Itani bomber
Serco has the Sky Command Prometheus, UIT has the UDV Raptor, both with 2 Lports. Why cant Itani have a ship with 2 Lports? If you're Itani you have to use a rag mk3 for bombing and its as slow and heavy as it can get but the prom and r aptor are pretty fast, giving them a tactical advantage to dodge missiles and blasters when bombing. The prom and raptorcan even be used in pvp which is unin even given the 21k armor on the prom and it still moves pretty fast. Please think it and feel free to make any suggestions.

You're entirely missing the point of making a faction unique. That said, if you find it hard to dodge with rag mk3, practice some more. It's very possible to capture a station solo with a single rag mk3. If you cannot, well, that's on you for being UNskilled.
Also you're forgetting the Tunguska centaur variant. It is especially tanky and excellent in combat.

The prom and the UDV are not bombers. The Itani have access to revenants, warthogs and centaurs, both of which have large ports. Throw 3 gemini on a valk if you want (to die).

The SCP has 2 L ports now?
@ UncleDave
It doesn't. Go back to sleep, we don't need your SCP running around just yet. :P
@ The Infinity
Only real bomber in VO is Ragnarok and it's not faction specific.
It's slow and sluggish (as a bomber should be) but it gets the work done.
Faction specific ships are in line with the Vo backstory and have their unique roles in combat and none of them is classified as bomber.
Serco SCP is a heavy assault ship with heaps of armor and ludicrous thrust and spin, Vulture Guardian is a light fighter/interceptor as is Itani Border Guardian. Itani Valkyrie is the light assault fighter (again all of them are consistent with the backstory).
UIT UDV & WTD were created because of the constant yellow players majority whining for additional nation specific ships besides Marauder (the only UIT ship consistent with the backstory).
Further player whining led to introduction of the Corvus Greyhound that is now No. 1 griefer ship in VO mainly used for swarm & run tactics.
In my opinion VO would really benefit more from removal of UDV and Greyhound then from introduction of a new nation/faction specific bomber.

"Serco has the Sky Command Prometheus, UIT has the UDV Raptor, both with 2 Lports."
Nope. All variants of the Prom have 2S 1L. The only ships that have 2L or better are the UDV Raptor, the Tunguska Mineral Marauder, the various Centaurs and Ragnarocks, and most of the Behemoths (one of which has 3L).

I understand what you are saying but my point is that Itani doesn't have a fighter with 2Lports, which is a disadvantage when fighting proms which always use gat turrets and the UDVs use dual megaposi dealing an enormous amount of damage compared to the Itani Valekrie. The only Lport fighter Itani can get is the Warthog and we all know it has bad pvp stats and only one Lport.
Gat turrets aren't very effective outside of 200m, just stay back a bit and use better aim
You clearly miss the point of the Itani. The Itani are nimble. The enemy's firepower doesn't matter if they can't actually hit you. If you can't dodge a UDV while flying an IBG or Valk, then you suck, plain and simple. Learn how to dodge.

Troll detected. Try harder next time.

Ooh... add the Obsidian Fleet from the Order of Akan, those sound like bombers! I mean, they made Serco SkyCommand into Serco CraterCommand.
