HTC has stated in the past no bombs greater than 4000lbs.  Want me to find a quote or would you like to search for yourself?

You posted twice here in what, 10 minutes? I'm sure you could have found all the research you needed in that amount of time.

You were finally able to maneuver your plane a week ago, and now you want all these additions. Try playing for a while before you start suggesting what needs to be added to the game.

Yeah I have. That was partially why I responded the way I did.

I think it's great the new people want to get involved. I also think that they should take some time and learn about the game and community before they start throwing out all their suggestions.

When I first started AH I don't think I said a word for the first month, and I moved here with my squad. Heck i didn't join the bulletin board until I had been here several years.

Tiny Tims!

An AP mix for the B-25H (they carried something like 6-7 AP rounds).

Ordinance and drop tank for the centerline pylon on the 1D Corsair, including up to a 2000lb'er on the center rack.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Actually, one thing I'd like to see is separate general-purpose and AP bombs, as there WERE different types of bombs used during the war (which we know this distinction was a major factor at Midway).

What good is an ordinance going to do on a plane? I don't think you can fire/drop/launch/use a decree made by a governing body against any enemy targets. I mean, it isn't like they will listen.


Try asking for some new ordnance.
