Is this not an RP-3 mounted on the P-51? Never seen this before

With Malaysia in game I am sad we don’t have her P-51 these WW2 props plus the Thai stuff would provide some good fighter bomber options for ground line ups.

I have a theory that back in the 1950s, AURI sourced their aerial bombs and rockets from the British, and that seems to support it. It’s unfortunate that I have yet to find sources explicitly mentioning it.
A while ago I discovered that Indonesian B-25 and B-26 were equipped with what looks like British bombs.

tbf we’re still using British bombs well until the 1990s (in the case of the hawk53), and also there was a lot of mention of the RAF in the Angkasa 1951-52 books, but dunno if theres a correlation there or not
theyre accessible via wikipedia if any of yall wanna read them (obviously in Indonesian, and only the 1951-52 version)
click the link, click the image on the page, itll bring you to its own pdf reader

That’s interesting though people don’t seem to care where a munition came from just that it works.
