Post by: RODBUSTR on December 14, 2017, 11:15:42 AM
        Some one posted a request for nukes a while back , so why not....:)Yes The Bahkka Bomb..   It could be a highly perked plane... or a weapon added to the G4M Betty inventory....   :)      post script.. I thin emojis suck.

From a development stand point it would entail some work.  HTC would also to add a new Betty model since the Betty we have on game was incapable of carrying the Baka Bomb.

Then there is the whole argument whether or not a suicide plane should be included in the plane set.

Isn't it's "payload" fairly small as well? :headscratch:

If you do a search on 'ohka'.. you'll notice it's been on the list for awhile.. even before the Betty was introduced into the planeset.

 Maybe It could take 2 players to make It happen.   We have a mass amount of suicide jockeys anyway...

Pretty sure HT's not real fond of kamikaze gameplay.  I'd put it in the "pretty unlikely" category.

I also agree with him. -1

Even the uprated G4M2 Betty struggled to carry the weight of the Ohka, it would climb very slowly, be vulnerable to interception and defenceless once the player switched to the Ohka.  More importantly the Ohka only had about a 2.5K warhead so you would probably need around three of them to sink an AH CV. A player could do a lot more damage/time with either a Jabo or a conventional heavy level bomber so  after the novelty wore off the Ohka would quickly become a hangar queen. It is not as though another way to kill CVs is needed anyway, what with the accuracy of level bombing in the game.
