You can cut through the skin of most aircraft with a knife.

I'm now curious if the landing gears will clip through the doors when they are raising/lowering, or if they will be proper like on the B-25's.... :headscratch:

Tu-2 vs Ki-67




The nominal range of 2360miles gives the Ki-67 an endurance of 85minutes at AH fuelburn 2.0. The Tu-2 has only about half that range while generally flying at comparable speeds, so it probably end up with having a relatively small flight endurance in AH, maybe 45 minutes?

Usually the bomb loads were:

light: 9x100 kg (internal)
medium: 4 x 250 kg (internal) + 2 x 250 kg (external)
high: 1 x 1000 kg (internal) + 2 x 500 kg (external)
max: 1 x 1000 kg (internal) + 2 x 1000 kg (external)  (was only used for short range raids)

And if it's a formation bird, it may kick the Ju-88 to the curb for both that and solo torp runs.
