Title: Pyro - Torpedoes on Ju 88
Post by: funked on November 15, 2000, 07:34:00 PM

I just realized this was missing from your ordnance list.  I would put it in the other thread but that one became cluttered (partially my fault).

Probably, that and a Seafire.  Just depends on how much time we have left.

Seafire would be nice, ordinary Spit V with bit of extra weight and different camo.

Kids today! Why can't they fetishize Fascist military hardware like normal people?

Ladysmith wants you forthwith to come to her relief
Burn your briefs you leave for France tonight
Carefully cut the straps of the booby-traps and set the captives free
But don't shoot 'til you see her big blue eyes

Ju-88 also needs it's 1000kg bomb in those inner racks.

and the Ju88 needs the proper bomb animation.

Bombs falling out forward like a conventional, run of the mill  bomber, perish the thought!

Jigster,
I think you're think of the He111.

AFAIK at one point they both used that release system. Thought it was the A-4.

Did the FW190 modified to carry torpedoes ever progress beyond a drawing?

I've seen prototypes of one they used for testing, but I'm sure that's all the farther it went. If I get a chance I'll post the pic.

They were operationally tested, and no more were produced.

So did the any of the 190 variants ever carry the 1800kg bomb into combat?

I've read where they did some flight testing with it but I dunno if they ever used it. (although I've been lead to believe they did)

How about torps for all aircraft that were rigged to carry them?
Like the B-26, A-26, P-38, PBY, Re2002, Fiat G55......
