the 109 can carry a 500kg bomb
« on: July 27, 2002, 11:22:37 PM »
...while the AH 109 (FandG series, Emil could only carry a 250kg) can only sling a 250kg bomb.  This first caught my eye in Il-2 and I was curious which was right.  I looked into a book I had and this is what it said:

"....Numerous Rustsatze kits were prodced to increase armorment, inlcuding those to produce the Bf-109G-6/R1 fighter-bomber with a bomb load of up to 500kg (1,102lb)...."

It would be nice to have this option for the 109.

Axis planes are Not in AH given the benifit of all their weapons load outs, unlike their US counterparts(for the most part). Their are Numiours wepons packages for AA bunch of Axis planes that are not "in the Game", some for good reasion other's well I just havent a clue...Some that come to mind are as folllows:

 N1K2-J: missing option for 4 60KG wing bombs

 Ju 88: mising so many bomb options I will not even get started.

 Machi C 202: mising it's bomb option's entirely

 FW 190F8: A bunch of external store options missing

 Bf 110's many different Gun/ bomb options

 Ki 67: prepordedly carying German model of torpedo, Japanese one was Better

 Their are more but I am becoming disgrunteled so I will stop....

  I am certain this is not An Allied conspicery, because some allied planes are simmilary deprived( although non come to mind curently) Many of the plane's listed had so many different loadout's it would not be practial to model them all and some would be clearly redunt in Nature. Howeaver their are several that would add much to the game. Primarly those that would enhance the Axis abality in a Jabo or bomber capacity would add much to game play.

An Allied aircraft that is missing gobs of loadouts is the Il-2M.

VVS is missing alot more important things then a few ord loadouts for the il2, whick is rarely flown as is.

I thikn instead of adding new planes why don't they redo the weapons loadouts for the current planeset?  IMO this would make the game a little mroe interesting and add some play to the current game we have.  Is it that hard to add more weapons for hte current planeset?  Or do we need more planes to add to our hunger and let the hanger queens stay in there because they are useless.

Instead of just asking for more load outs, he has to whine about the new (non-German) planes recently added.

Now the 109 will never get a 500kg bomb in AH.  WTG luftwhiner.

Yah its the Russian planes that lack alot of their loadouts.

Pyro told me he was gonna add the Yak-9U big gun options a LONG time ago, then at last years con he said he was gonna do it as a seperate plane, the Yak-9UT, but we still don't have that little birdie :(

Please Pyro? :)
