Is there a key stroke to dump all ords without having to rotate thru all your weapons and external tanks? If not, why not add one?
-
not that I know of.
and you know if it didna have it in real life of WWII it won't be here. but then again I doubt real WWII bombers could double as fighters as well.
I know you aren't asking me, just my opinion

I don't think any plane in the War had an oh crap dump everything so I don't get shot by an enemy fighter button. -1

Modern planes do so not sure when that function became common.
Also useful in real life for more typical emergency situations such as engine failures etc

The B-17 and B-24 both had an emergency bomb drop system. IIRC on both airplanes it dropped them through the bomb doors -- in the B-17 the door mechanism had a breakaway point that could be reset but in the B-24 it would peel the doors out of the track causing damage and a need to be repaired before return to service.

Noted on on B-17 & B-24. He's talking about a fighter see mention of external tanks.

Saw the f86 had that function.. wouldnt surprise me if some ww2 planes had it but probably not that usefula feature in ah3

well I use the X-52 and X-52pro and I have my secondary weapon button mapped to my throttle on the thumb switch no problem droping the ords-except for rockets have to be fired-I can see were a drop everything at once switch/button can be useful.
because not everybody has a X-52
