just some things I think we need for bombs
8000 and 12000 pound blockbusters for the lanc
12000 pound tallboy bomb
22000 pound grand slam bomb
ap rounds for the b25h
flying bombs and glide bombs
-
Do you have any examples what what bombers carried such ordnance and that ordnance was used?
-
the tallboy and grand slam, and the 2 extra cookies were dropped from lanc on several occasions
I will get more info later when my internet decides it wants to work
-
HTC has stated in the past no bombs greater than 4000lbs. Want me to find a quote or would you like to search for yourself?

You posted twice here in what, 10 minutes? I'm sure you could have found all the research you needed in that amount of time.
-
You were finally able to maneuver your plane a week ago, and now you want all these additions. Try playing for a while before you start suggesting what needs to be added to the game.

Napalm. We REALLY need napalm. Can't think of a better way to take out hoards of troops...

Check out his posts in the custom sounds and skins area... :D

Yeah I have. That was partially why I responded the way I did.
I think it's great the new people want to get involved. I also think that they should take some time and learn about the game and community before they start throwing out all their suggestions.
When I first started AH I don't think I said a word for the first month, and I moved here with my squad. Heck i didn't join the bulletin board until I had been here several years.

Tiny Tims!
An AP mix for the B-25H (they carried something like 6-7 AP rounds).
Ordinance and drop tank for the centerline pylon on the 1D Corsair, including up to a 2000lb'er on the center rack.

Now see, there is a suggestion. O.k. actually two.

Actually, one thing I'd like to see is separate general-purpose and AP bombs, as there WERE different types of bombs used during the war (which we know this distinction was a major factor at Midway).

thats cuz i rarely fly in dogfights. I use bombers or ground atack aircraft

What good is an ordinance going to do on a plane? I don't think you can fire/drop/launch/use a decree made by a governing body against any enemy targets. I mean, it isn't like they will listen.
Try asking for some new ordnance.

mind putting that in english?

It is in English you clod. The same English that you and I both speak, albeit with varying skill levels.
Let me make it simple for you, Mr. Caveman.
Ordinance = a law/decree made by a government, local or national.
Ordnance = explosive boom boom, usually strapped to aircraft and dropped on targets.
Easy, no?
Edit: I got the point, I've seen the mix-up enough times. Besides, there is nothing wrong with being able to communicate in a manner that invites people to respect you and your opinions.

ENGLIS IS NOT MY STRONG POINT!! Science is. Everyone else got the point, but you didnt. grammar freaks like you drive me insane

I can fly a bomber fine.

Actually that was in English (notice how I used an uppercase E there), and he totally pwnd you. The fact that you did not realize the pwn you had endured and posted this pretty much means he pwnd you twice.

ok guess what IM NOT A GRAMMAR NAZI AND EVERYONE GETS WHAT IM SAYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lancs carried all these, only the 22k Grand Slam required mods to the aircraft. The big bombs were widely used for big/hardened targets including ships (Tirpiz was sunk with tallboys), U-boat pens, Flak towers, C&C bunkers, Bridges and Viaducts etc etc. You can tell if they were used on a target because the craters are mostly still there.
Ingame the obvious targets would be CVs, SBs and the HQs (which are actually flak towers.)
edit: apart from the flying bombs and spelling, this is actually a reasonable request :aok

Really? This response from you is near the height of denial. Here's why:
ordinance / or·di·nance / noun
1 a : an authoritative decree or direction : order b : a law set forth by a governmental authority; specifically : a municipal regulation
2 : something ordained or decreed by fate or a deity
3 : a prescribed usage, practice, or ceremony
You should worry about your own "lack of English and Grammar skills". Because the word you used in the subject line has absolutely nothing to do with bombs.
-

If ignorance was bliss. You obviously have no pride in wishing to properly decipher the language that you speak and write. You're trying to flame others, but merely digging yourself deeper as a result. If you're a kid, you have a lot to learn in life. I sincerely hope you realize that if you go to college, you're going to regret your laziness towards "English". It will come back to bite you in the posterior.

Pardon me, what was that?

fixed, since we're being so pedantic :neener:
In addition, you shouldn't start a sentence with a conjunction. That is bad grammar :lol
-
With all the poor spelling and grammar, I'm now confused.
So the new ordinance is that newbs should be limited to only one post a week?
-

THIS is an "ordinance".

ok to make you all happy, I want new bombs and bullets for my b25h

I know basic aerodynamics
It's surprising how one with your vast knowledge of basic aerodynamics can manage to get a plane into a spin while doing a simple banking turn.

It could have been a glitch, or something. but I aint worried about how I got into the spin in the first place

Then why mention it?
-
we are missing some different size rockets.... the americans had larger rockets than the hvar. they came with the normal cost of only being able to take 2.
-
what about the mark 24 mine(ariel dropped homing torpedo) and a pby5a to drop it
-
the tallboy and grand slam, and the 2 extra cookies were dropped from lanc on several occasions
I will get more info later when my internet decides it wants to work
We don't have the correct aircraft to drop that ord.
-
Here just so you can see what I am talking about & why we don't have the correct aircraft to drop the bombs you want. The bomb bays were modified just to fit the tall boy in & the grand slam.... well no room for doors at all.

Tall Boys could be an option for our lanc as only the bomb bay doors were modded iirc (think glass nose/strafer B25 versions), the B1 Special (bottom pic) for Grand Slams is really a different aircraft though.

...at the other end of the ordnance (sp!) spectrum, how about "parafrags"? They were often used in the SW Pacific, and would add something to FSO and other events:
