Bielefeld viaduct took over 3500 tons of bombs and still stood.
617 went in dropped a couple of Tallboys and one Grandslam - result

All the mini craters around it are from the 3500 tons of bombs dropped previously.

Plus -
What happens when a Grandslam meets 23ft of reinforced concrete?

Answer

Helldiver - The anti-shipping version of the "Bouncing Bomb" was called a "High Ball", never got used operationally.
Designed to be carried in pairs (one behind the other) by Mosquitos.

htc should work on some weapon add ons, tall boy and grand slam sound great:aok . BUt didnt them have to take off guns or lighten the buddy some to take off with these BIG bombs. I wish we could have incedairy bombs, that would take out a town reall fast, it just sucks that it will kill the frame rate.

They also need to add incedairy and armor pierceing rounds to the 50 cal machine guns.

That pic looks insane, it looks like the moon. The only other pics i seen like that were pics of nam after the b52s hit

50 calibre guns in game are a mix of AP and incendiary bkbandit...
