Is the first Land Battleship immune to bombs?
Figured on my Ace playthrough I'd use some of the more advanced bombs like SFFS or an SOD to keep the land battleship's deck clear (especially of the airburst guns), but I noticed that they were doing almost no damage at all. This also held for XSDBs and UGBLs. Whereas SFFS made the third Land Battleship fight a cakewalk since I could wipe out all the heat vents at once - despite the ship still moving, just like the first one. Trying to figure this out since maybe I can get away with 6AGMs on my next run.

I found that at some odd angles, the targets are covered enough to not take any substantial damage. Blindly dropping unguided helped me clear most of the smaller targets and some side tracks were blown off by me dropping the bombs next to the battleship, not on it. As long as the bombs had a direct line of sight from the impact, it did reasonably well. MSLs just worked better though honestly.
