dont know if the load out is correct, but the 18ookg. bomb would be nice on the ar 234 (for pork-en and cv drop-en) and would only increase weight by 300kg. over the 3-500kg. load out

Its a pretty righteous CV killer as it stands, and in its own right. Best of all it can get to the CV quickly before the Jabos bring it down. This is a great aircraft. I dont know why Ive gotten away from it?

A stock Ar-234B could be configured either as a bomber or reconnaissance aircraft. Maximum bomb load was about 1.5 tonnes (3,300 pounds), carried externally. A typical bomb load was a single 500 kilogram (1,100 pound) bomb under the fuselage centerline and under each engine nacelle, but a single 1,000 kilogram (2,000 pound) bomb or 1,400 kilogram (3,080 pound) bomb could be carried on the centerline. When used as a reconnaissance aircraft, the Ar-234B carried a 300 liter (79 US gallon) drop tank under each engine in place of the bombs.
