Nor does the A-26's payload equal 12,000 lbs. of ordnance.  The A-26 was only capable of carrying 6,000 lbs. of ordnance total, 4,000 lbs. internally and 2,000 lbs. on wing mounted external hardpoints.

Wait. Is this frustration talking? If it makes you feel better you can go look stupid in 'my' thread, too.

Interesting section from the A-26 flight manual.

If this were more widely known, I doubt there would be the constant clamor for the A26.  While it's nice to see the people in this thread who actually want to use it as a bomber, most of the A26 enthusiasts want to fly it as a maxi-gun fighter, as was done in AW.

well does the manual for the a20s mention that it can.  what about any existing bomber,  what would happen if you turn it upside down? heck you can drop bombs while upside down.

what was permissible to do in ww2 and what we can do in the game are totally different.

Sorry Arlo but those kind of all-in-one books are rarely very good sources. The whole caption does not make much sense as it first says 1500kg internally and then mentions that the internal bomb load ranges from 9x100kg bombs to one 1000kg bomb. Also, just look at the pic on that next page, those nine FAB100s fill the whole bomb bay. How is a 1500kg bomb load going to fit in there?

Anyway, enough hijacking on my part...

Saw a a-26 at the Pensacola nas airshow in 2011 I think. Thought it was a a20 at first but its way meaner looking than a a20. I'm not sure I would like to see cobia get his hands on that air craft
