Just a few questions I had about the B-26.
1. Why isn't there WEP?
2. There is something in the cockpit that mentions torpedoes, but we don't have them for that AC?
3. What happened to the guns being bloody and destroyed when the position was killed? (ie b-25)
4. Is the burn rate correct? It seems this is the only bomber I need to take at least 75% for a multi-sector flight. (50% is enough, but just barely)
5. Are the speed indicator and altimeter in the bomb sight supposed to work?

The burn rate is an odd thing, I agree. I can launch with %100 and 15 min later I still have 53min of fuel or more. Sure, the higher the B26 goes, like most planes, the better fuel efficiency it has. Ultimately, don't let the 53 mins of fuel fool you, can can go much further.
WEP? I didn't think the B26 had WEP in any case.
Bomb sights speed indicators worked for me yesterday. Did you have the sight aimed?

b26 used to have wep years ago.

What is the requirement for a plane to have WEP in AH2? I know the Lancaster does, and so does the b-29, but planes like the p40 and yak3 do not. I've always taken this to mean that they are always running full power already.

P40 and other non wep planes didn't have wep in reality(which can be a couple of features depending on plane. Most are just superchargers and burn gas faster and others, mainly the 190s used water and methanol something injected straight to and doesn't burn extra fuel; but both provide extra horsepower), so they are not modeled in the game with it either.

P-40 is a man's plane. It doesn't need WEP.
