British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

That will be up to Gaijin

Who do I have to almost beat to death to fix this?

Whats up?

The pre-war 500lb bombs with the explosive load of the American 250lb bombs. They just gave the 500lb M.C bombs to the Beau’s but not anything else.

After further research it seems that the Wyvern also got the M.C bombs.
The Shackleton has the 500lb Mk.II bombs so I don’t see why the Sea Hawk shouldn’t.

After 30 more seconds of searching

If you’ve got any sources for it you can report it and I’ll forward it.

Do I need a source that states that the replacement for the Attacker wouldn’t have the same bomb that it could carry?

A manual showing the available stores for both would be enough.

The challenger 2 is the most armoured MBT… in the WORLD!.. Source ? Jeremy Clarkson. plez fix Gaijin XD

In general you can look at the straight sided shape of the bombs even with the old tail kit plus the fact they have suspension lugs on both sides, and see they’re MC 500lbers, not the teardrop-shaped GP

AFAIK the ingame 500lber that equips early-post-war jets like the Attacker is modelled with a finned tail unit though (like the modern 540lber has)
Closest I’ve seen to that is one on the ground next to a sea hawk
Visible on the ground on the right good enough for one with the post-war tail?

That said, there’s pics of Wyverns in Suez with 1000lb-ers having finned tail units, so might be appropriate

Ed:- added some pics of the Wyverns carrying 1000lb bombs with No.114 type tails

It isn’t just the Sea Hawk though.


Ignore the Wyvern. I removed it.

Just reading “RAF Harrier, Ground Attack, Falklands” by Jerry Pook.

Interesting to read that Harrier GR.3s were fitted with 9L’s during the conflict (with pic, will upload later)

Didn’t realise the GR.3s were cleared for 9L use.

Makes sense sea harrier is very similar airframe

It was war, paper work becomes less important

“Cleared” in this case means probably just that launch rails were filed down to make the 9Ls fit as they did on the Shar.

We could get the Gr.3 early with no flares and no missiles. does 8.7 seem fair?

isnt that just the Gr1 but with RWR? No CMs, barely usable missiles but still 9.3
