The Yak carried them as well? I wonder if you could shower a formation of Buffs with Ptabs?

Fw190a8 had a similar cluster bomb.
My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.

Germany had a full compliment of PTAB like bombs and delivery containers. If PTAB and Abwurfbehälter AB get introduced, our GVers may well go to another game. An FW just needs to get some alt off the opposite side of the field from the enemy spawn, then poop a cluster from a safe alt against GV's. Or a single Yak doing an Airjer impersonation out of the bushes. I'm beginning to see the reemergence of guys doing this with a box of Lancs. GV's do have a strong effect these days in field assaults while a number of those players have learned to turn the front of their tank into my IL2 as I pull the trigger.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Would it be any different from diving in a Tu-2 and drop a 1 ton bomb? You dont need to be that accurate to blow up a tank.
Rather see an Il-2 w anti tank bombs than a set of suicide lancs carpet bombing...

Il-2 at least would be historically correct.
