Convair B-36A "Peacemaker"

The thread must be kept active if we wish to see this plane in game, also gotta say that is a fantastic video about the gun system. If this plane is added it may actually stand a chance in the current META given that it uses the same aim system but instead of 50 cal it uses 20mm cannons. I am aware that a lot of other bombers have larger caliber defensive armaments but the B-29 is pretty accurate for a bomber so that in combination with the larger caliber may actually make it survivable.

Gajin please, strategic cold war bombers in general are long overdue.

Its sad this monster is not in game. Even though early jets will slice you in two all the 20mm and if we get fire control computers early jets might have a hard time.

Once again unfortunate it’s this trainer variant that gets attention and not the actual first bomber variant the B-36B

(Identical except actually fully armed)

we can pretend all the broom sticks pretending to be cannons to be real in our heads. Each time a plane flys close you yell boom boom bang bang ra ta ta ta! And, if your lucky they will freakout and fly away.

i joined the game for stuff like the he-111 and b-17
and then the bomber nerf came like right after i joined so i never got to enjoy them

I do also want a fully armed B36 but they could add a couple variants, the B36 had a fair number of variants they could add

I think you misunderstand- the B-36A had no live weapons at all. It was only used for conversion training. The B-36B is the functionally the actual first variant. Which I will once again nudge people to go support the excellent suggestion for because it has a wholehearted +1 from me!

Sorry, I am aware that the A was a training variant, by multiple variants I was refering to the addition of the B-36H, which had its full armament but upgraded sensors, the four jet engines amongst a host of improvements. The other variant they could potentially add though I personally don’t like as much is the J variant which had its armament stripped apart from the tail gun, sorry for the confusion

There are barely any Cold War heavy bombers in the game, and I hope to see the Tu-95 come along together.

You mean the YB-60?

72

YB-60 has a total of 8 jet engines in 4 underwing pods (2 side-by-side powerplants in each pod).

I think he means the final B-36J production variant of the Peacemaker, which added 4 jet engines in 2 underwing pods, along with the 6 pusher-propeller engines.

Looks the the same as the First production model

I’m still waiting since the US has the B-66b as the latest jet bomber, I’m hoping something like the B-56 “Hustler” or the Short Sperrin, but I think that the teams of WT are working on the funding on 2 projects, Submarines and Bombers.

Keep the thread alive, and then there’s more of a chance of us getting it.

With the B36 Peacemaker Gaijin is likely going to make 2 chimera vehicles one with jets the other without. Just to make sure the vehicle picked has the most amount of weapons and bring the most utility it can.
