Title: Time Delayed Bombs?
Post by: Jekyll on April 10, 2000, 05:25:00 AM

In Brand W I used to be able to jabo ....  really!  I could actually hit targets when dropping bombs from my friendly P51 or P47.

But not in here.  I suppose I could hit a city if necessary, but a hanger or ack?  No chance  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Which got me to thinking about time-delayed bombs.  Any possibility we might see these in the future?  Say an 8 second delay from impact.. just enough time for a low-level Mustang to get out of harms way?

Jekyll, that would be cool.  The Schlachtgruppen used such bombs on their Fw 190's.  They would approach targets with their props almost scraping the earth, then drop the bomb and get out of there.  Then after a delay BOOOOOOOOOM.

Keep trying on the dive bombing though.  I don't find it any more difficult to score hits than in WB.

Of course I use 1000lb bombs...  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
