Same as the F-4EJ Kai, since it uses the exact same bomb racks for Mk.82/JM117s
All they require is Mk.82/JM117 capability (aside from weight/size limitations), so T-2 can absolutely use them even without the CCIP or dual racks of the F-1. They are dropped like dumb bombs and fully self contained.
It would even be able to carry a fifth under the fuselage, since we know that has enough clearance from an in-flight photo of the FS-T2 carrying it.
The F-15s also didn’t carry them, they only had the technical capability, so it’s up to Gaijin if we get those now.
I’ve never seen a Japanese 37mm; in fact, I know there’s a suggestion about the Type 1 Ta-Ha. So seeing the 37mm sort makes the design we see with the box more likely, if anything. Though i highly doubt it was on a Chi-He Body.
The turbo charger was to be mounted on the underside of the fuselage, witch allows the nose to be streamlined a little. the powerplant was to be replaced with the experimental HA-217(HA-46-11), which it’s supposed to produce around 3000hp.
Edit: in all, most the aircraft was built technically; with the engine not put in. Kinda like the first R2Y2 except we know the guns it has and purpose of the aircraft.
Edit 2.0: I just want a super-prop single engine fighter in the tech tree.
Edit 3.0: its supposed to use a similar turbo charger arrangement as the ki-94-II and ki-100-II.
With the bomber revolution the J7W1 is great point at the cockpit and the 30mm do some magic. Even if you don’t hit the cockpit the 30mm do some damage!
They drop like unguided bombs, then the bombs seeker turns on and looks for targets without player input. You’ll have to aim them towards whatever you’re trying to target and hope the bomb finds and tracks it.
This was mainly designed for anti-ship purposes iirc, Therefore accuracy wasn’t a big issue (as ships are generally very large and aren’t close to other ships)
Just allows the pilot to drop it in a certain area where a ship is, then leave. In game, I assume it’ll get tank guiding capabilities but its the same concept, drop it using CCIP/CCRP and the bomb will search the area its heading to.
If they do allow against tanks I could see them being good against anti sam work, you’d have to be sneaky but if you can catch them off guard drop those bombs which is usually a good amount, around the spawn and they saturate their air and also target whatever people are there
I mean you could theoretically use CCRP to launch these from behind cover by lobbing them, then they track by themselves. If you end up revealing yourself when lobbing you can easily notch and flare your way back to cover.
