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

Cit,
Did the P-38 ever actually carry 2 2000lb bombs on strike missions?
If so, wow.

Karnak-
The 2,000 lb bomb I heard was designed for the purpose of taking out Tigers (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Tigers? why not just use a springfield? 2000 lb seems like overkill.

There are some gun camera films from the 357 where two P-51's drop their single thousand pounders (other pylon had a DT) and watched as it bounced off the Tiger and wasted a small hotel next to it. Tiger survived unscathed from both bomb blasts.
C Yeager mentions it in his book, Anderson has also recalled that particular mission (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)
Besides the trick would be to knock out a platoon of Tigers with one good drop (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Didn't they also use those 2000lb bombs on the rides with that glass nosed P-38 which had norden in it?
And yes.. Ju-88 must have its 1000kg bombs in inner racks.

DROOP SNOOT!!!

fd-ski; 6000ft is probably the length of runway a Fw 190G carrying a 1800kg bomb would need to get airborne. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
-
LOL!! that was the reason why they took off from mud and snowy fields on Eastern front?...
6000feet? ROFL (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

No no no juzz... u got that wrong !!!
Fw190A8 with 17 20mm guns and 32 30mm cannons and extra ammo carring 4000lb bomb could take off at less the 500 yards thanks to B1T3M3 innjection to the engine that gave it extra 10000 hp for periods up to 70 days !!
This fact was covered up by allies after the war, but infact, Fw190 was and still is the best fighter ever and using B1T3M3 injection can easily take on F16s and Mig 29s !!!
Here are some stats:
Speed on the deck: 1200mph
Speed at alt ( 50000 ft ) 2500mph
Climbrate: without B1T3M3 system - 5000 ft/m
with B1T3M3 - 25000 ft/m.
Turnrate was better then spitfire thanks to 1W15HUD3D device.
While others might deny it, Fw190 was and still is the best fighter ever.
There... take that !!!

I'll try to look up the takeoff distance for a 190 with an 1800 kg bomb. It's astronomical for sure.
-
That was quick. The Fw 190G that carried 1000kg, 1600kg, and 1800kg bombs required special landing gear struts, wheels, and tires. Takeoff distance was 1300 m with 1800 kg bomb.
The heaviest load for a standard G-3 or G-8 was 250 kg on each wing and 500 kg on the centerline for 1000 kg total. Even this configuration caused problems with takeoff distance, operation from unpaved fields, and range.
