If you have been stuck on the Mined Barns mission, you are definitely not alone. This stage looks simple, but it fails you instantly if you do one tiny thing wrong. Once you know the trick, though, it becomes one of the easiest missions in the game.
Let me walk you through exactly how to beat it without wasting lives or bombs.
Bomber Ace Mined Barns Walkthrough – How to Beat Mission
Your objective says:
- Destroy all infantry
- Destroy both vehicles
- Do not use gunfire
- Do not let bombs hit the barns
If your guns are equipped, your plane will automatically shoot — and that instantly fails the mission.
So the very first thing we do is remove the guns.
Step 1 – Prepare Your Plane
Before starting the mission:
- Remove all guns
- Equip only bombs
- Upgrade Armor if possible (helps survive mistakes)
You can beat it without armor, but armor makes it much safer.
Step 2 – Destroy the Vehicles
There are only two vehicles on the map.
Fly in carefully and drop bombs on the vehicles — not the barns.
Once both vehicles are destroyed, you can fully focus on the infantry.
Step 3 – How to Kill Infantry Without Guns
This is the trick most players miss.
You do not shoot the infantry.
You ram them.
Fly directly into the infantry on the rooftops and on the ground.
Your propeller kills them instantly.
Just avoid red explosive barrels — hitting those can fail the mission.
Step 4 – Clean Up the Last Enemies
Once you have rammed all infantry and destroyed both vehicles, the mission ends immediately and all POWs are freed.
Why This Works
- Guns are disabled, so no accidental failures
- Bombs only hit vehicles, never barns
- Ramming ignores the bomb restrictions
- Fast, clean, and safe
Once you learn this method, you can speedrun this mission in seconds.
Completing tricky missions like this gives you free gems.
Use them to:
- Unlock new planes
- Buy more bombs
- Save for stronger aircraft like the Spitfire or Mustang
Mined Barns looks scary — but with this strategy, it becomes one of the easiest wins in Bomber Ace.
