i wonder how many ppl logged on, saw the b29's bomb options, looked at the 4,000lber bomb (without clicking it) and immediatly thought "n00k!!!!!!".  :lol



ive started calling the 4,000lbers n00ks just because they sort of resemble tiny nukes.


and speaking of tiny nukes...


i request MINI-NUKES!  :O
(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f385/xxREXxx_01/Mini_Nuke.png)


droped from a b29 named "pearl" that was raised from lake mead & restored by the boomers.

these mini nukes were used in the battle for hoover dam to carpet bomb the legion to its knees.


they'd be perfect for aceshigh  :aok

It's action that counts, not words...

Just to make this easy we'll call Fat Man a 15KT device.  15,000 tons is 30,000,000 pounds.  Once B-29 can carry 20,000 pounds, so 15KT is roughly equal to 1,500 B-29 loads.  There are three B-29s in a formation, so a 15KT device would only take 500 sorties. 

...if you start now you will just about have enough time to haul the whole thing before the resolutions are passed and the clever speeches end...

Except it will not physically fit in the bomb bay of the B-29 we have in game... still.

[game spoilers].

if you take the ncr or mr house or wildcard quests, they ask you to get the boomers at nellis af base on your side.


after you gain the support of the boomers. they will tell you about "the lady in the lake"

which is a crashed b29 at the bottom of lake mead.

they will give you a rebreather and ask you to surface it for them.

you do this by attaching ballasts at the bottom of each wing. and it lifts the b29 up to the surface.

they then bring it back to nellis and restore it using parts from another museum b29 that was on base.


then during the battle for hoover dam, as long as your ether on the ncr,or mr houses side. or taken the wildcard quest, there is a part where the b29 (which they nicknamed pearl after there vaults leader) will come in low and carpet bomb the top of the dam with mini nukes to kill the legions choked up there. you gotta be careful tho cus they can accidently drop on you.

if your on mr.houses or the wildcard side, then it will still happen. but if your listening to the ncr radio they will claim that they are being aided by a "non ncr flying object" which is the b29.


also after you lift it, the radio announcer mr. new vegas, will comment on it. saying that there was a sighting of a large unidentified object spotted surfacing from laked mead. and he nicknamed it the "lake mead monster".


the mission is based off a real life b29 that was forced to make an emergency landing in lake mead back in 1949.

the bomber went like 50-something years staying hidden at the bottom of the lake till a diver team finally discovered it.

as far as i know, theres a legal battle going on wether to raise the bomber and restore it or leave it down there as a memorial.

The nuke is already in the game. Don't believe me?, in game zoom in to the bulkhead over the instrument panel at the flight engineer station in the B29. There is a white sign with red lettering that says "ALT F4 for NUKES!"   :lol  here is a link to a thread on the forums with a screen shot of it. http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,307481.0.html

No bomb.

Silverplate B-29 (http://www.worldlingo.com/ma/enwiki/en/Silverplate), a highly-classified B-29 modification project.

Quote
Modifications to the bomb bays were extensive and time-consuming. Its four 12-foot bomb bay doors and the fuselage section between the bays were removed and a single 33-foot bomb bay configured (the length of the gun-type shape was approximately seventeen feet). New bomb suspensions and bracing were attached for both shape types, with the gun-type suspension anchored in the aft bomb bay (although its length protruded into the forward bay) and the implosion type mounted in the forward bay.[7] Separate twin-release mechanisms were mounted in each bay, using modified glider tow-cable attach-and-release mechanisms.[8] To document the tests, motion picture camera mounts were installed in the rear bay.[5]

The modifications were made using the dummy bomb shapes as models, and the gun-type shape (code-named Thin Man) proved to be a very close fit. All modifications were made by hand and the process required more than 6000 man-hours of labor[5] which could not be completed until February. Engine problems systemic to the B-29 delayed delivery of the Pullman B-29 for flight testing until February 20, 1944.
