Helldivers 2: How to Destroy Gunship Fabricators

Helldivers 2 has seen a new enemy join the war. The Automatons have developed Gunships and have been raining down fire from the sky ever since. We all know that the best way to spread democracy is to blow everything up and that also applies to the flying bots.

Equip the Quasar Cannon or the Spear to shoot them from the sky. You can put down the Autocannon Sentry and it will put in some work against the Gunships. The main issue is dealing with the factories that spawn the flying Automatons.

How to Deal with Gunship Factories in Helldivers 2

It seems many fans of Helldivers 2 have been wasting their stratagems against the fabricators that spawn Gunships. They will take all the Orbital Strikes we can throw at them but there is only one thing that will deal with them. Arrowhead’s community manager recently divulged that Hellbombs are our only weapon that will destroy the Gunship Fabricators.

There is no reason to waste our stratagems or our ammo. You are going to need to get up close and personal. Take out any Gunships overhead, but be careful they don’t drop on you.

Clear the area of Automatons before you call in a Hellbomb because they will make it their priority to blow bombs up as soon as you arm them. Make use of any cover for your Hellbomb - using downed Gunships is always a good option.

As soon as the bomb is ready to go, get out of dodge and blow the robotic infestation sky-high. It is your duty as an agent of democracy to rid the galaxy of all types of Automatons. Make sure you are well equipped to handle the Gunship Fabricators and let the bots know they can develop as many new toys as they want. We will always win.
