If the B Mk IV were to be added, would it probably have the ability to carry the 6/500lb bombs or the 4000lb cookie?  I'm reading a few different sources and Im not able to tell if the multiple variations of the B Mk IV had the ability to carry either payload.

and yes... PLEASE update the current AH2 Mossie's flight model, graphics, speed stats, etc, which also inclused as many of us have said time and time again, removing those blasted flame dampeners/exhaust shrouds.   :)

Let the Mossie be was it was in WWII: a fear aircraft in all roles!   :aok

The B.Mk IV could not carry a 4,000lb bomb.  The B.Mk IV 'Special' could, but it wasn't happy.  I've also never heard of a B.Mk IV carrying six 500lb bombs.  I don't know if it had the wing points for them.

The B.Mk XVI was built from the start to carry a 'cookie' and did so with ease.  The B.Mk XVI could also carry six 500lb bombs.

ah yes... I had my variants mixed up.  The B Mk XVI was the variant that was 6/500lb capable.  Yes, indeed the  Mkk XVI would be a much valued addition to the hanger.  Either take the "cookie" along with 9 of your buddies for a HQ run or the 6/500lb bombs for some gv poppin' or hanger bustin'.  Nice.
