Author Topic: The Mosquito FB.VI Series 2 could carry 500lb bombs in the bomb bay. (Read 223 times)

The Mosquito MkVI should have the option to carry 2 250lb bombs or 2 500lb bombs in the bomb bay. Series 1 aircraft were limited to 250lb bombs, but the Series 2 could carry either 250s or 500s.

Thanks for moving the Mosquito from the Bomber/Attack category to the Fighter/Attack category.

Please give the Mozzie the 2 500lb bombs in the bomb bay option. This is a well documented capability of the Mosquito FB.VI Series 2.

Give us the bigger eggs in the bomb bays absolutely, but also give us a way to tell which 500 pounder we have selected? Would kind of suck to line up on a target, select a 500, and drop off a shot only to find that the bombs dont drop because the bays are closed and you selected an internal bomb

You gat my vote for both proposals... Series 2 could carry 2000lbs of ordonance consisting of 4x 500lbs bombs.... It is by the book and also acording to history...
