Pls add bombs for F4D-1

Like add bombs or napal to this jet for ground sim targets it has only 280 ammo and max 114FFARs (without aim9bs) like at least 1 or 2 2000lbs bombs or napal it would be good navy bomber

Pls gaijin :))))

It is listed in many sources that the F4D-1 Skyray did indeed have the capacity to carry 1 or 2 1,000-2,000lb bombs however gaijin decided in it’s first implementation not to add it for some reason. I made a bug report as soon as the aircraft came out but was told it was not a bug and to take it to the forums.

Hopefully we soon get the bombload the Skyray could carry. It’s missing this strike capability so hopefully it get’s added. Similarly it would be nice to see the fuel tanks the Skyray carried:

Mate, you shouldn’t have to fly it a specific way. The Wings shouldn’t snap at all in the first place. That is simply a flaw on Gaijin’s part.

If you do silly maneuvers sure, but it doesn’t do that anymore.

I mentioned that a few times above.

I turned left in a 12.7 and my wings ripped but i did the EXACT SAME THING in a 9.0 game and the wings did not rip so idk?

It’s always been a thing ingame that if you pull faaarrr too hard that the wings snap. It just since they add realistic control compression most of the time, many aircraft that were incredibly fragile are no longer than fragile. Since the F4D-1 has hydraulically boosted controls, it’s an aircraft you can rip the wings with.

It was a very light turn not a hard asf turn
