Yes, they probably could, but its not too hard to shoot down something the size of a very large house moving at 45 m/s, and it would take ages for the bombers to get from space to the surface.  I assume the GTVA have seperate craft for atmsopheric assult.

It's like 500 years into the future:) and the minbari nail fighter is also capable of atmospheric flight and it has no tailfins at all;)
