Not true. You can kill open topped tanks and trucks by ramming into them. You just can’t kill fully armored vehicles by ramming into them. I’ve done it multiple times with Japanese planes.

3.5t?!
Jesus christ, what’s the overpressure pen gonna be then?!
Do we know anything about filler-type?

Spoiler

Ony thing thats good out of all of this. Another skip event. Nice

It kinda is, it has an autopilot that maintains its direction, apparently. Its not just a bomb, you can aim it towards target and it will hit it after the detaching.

Technically the mother aircraft can still retain its guns, so this should just be a payload option with it getting fighter / attacker (depending on the 190 variant) spawn if without guns or bomber spawn if carrying mistel

I don’t care for another german wunderwaffe, as if they had not enough of them. Allies got nothing, apparently. No early guided/glide bombs for US, UK, USSR. Why USSR got KV-7 that is not even interesting, but not an actually weird project? Radio-controlled TB-3, for example? Or IR-guided beam-riding glide torpedoes mounted to TB-3? Why it was KV-7?

Why Germans/Japanese get all the interesting and weird wunderwaffe?

Is the guidance manuel?

I really wonder how they’ll model this

Droppable Ordnance haaving a detailed damage model?
being able to remove engines and lift from the aircraft with a button press?

Maybe it paves the way for the Slip Wing Hurricane (Biplane Hurricane with jettisonable top wing)

It’s like a glide bomb without a seeker or a dumbfire rocket

How much TNT can we expect this “bomb” to contain?

I don’t see this thing having much use unless it’s 3T+ with how much the large bombs have been nerfed, but on the other hand i can’t see a FW 190 lifting this much so it seems like a pretty trash vehicle to me

No guidance, you just launch it and it will fly in a straight line

It should maintain its direction, so, it is not a dumbfire rocket. You just aim it once and it will hit where you aim with your nose after detaching.

That literally is what dumbfire means

Really!

Well somebody test it fot me pls, so i can decide to get it or not

Why is it even a dream come true if it was used and 250 apparently were made, lol

There were similar test projects for Allies that were not used as much and were more suited for DCT, why germany… with a mass produced plane.
