Su-6 (AM-42) Is this a bug or historical evidence?

I wonder if it is a historical fact that the Su-6 (AM-42) is not equipped with a 37mm autocannon and FAB100sv bombs.

The Su-6 (M-71F) is equipped with a 7.62mm machine gun and a 37mm autocannon as standard, as additional armament, 25~100kg bombs can be installed in the bomb bay, and 50~250kg bombs, rockets can be installed on the wings.

The Su-6 (AM-42) is equipped with a 7.62mm machine gun as standard, Additional armament includes a choice of 23mm/37mm autocannon, 25-100kg bombs in the bomb bay, and 50-250kg bombs + rockets on the wings.

And the Su-6 (M-71F) can load bombs without any problems, but the Su-6 (AM-42) cannot carry bombs weighing more than 100 kg on both wings and bomb bays when equipped with a 37mm autocannon.

The wings may not be able to mount large bombs because they are close to the autocannons, but it is puzzling that they cannot be mounted together even though they are far from the bomb bay.

Is this the difference between Su-6 (AM-42) and Su-6 (M-71F) or is it a bug?

I often fly the Su-6 (AM-42), but it is unfortunate that it cannot be equipped with a 100kg bomb and a 37mm autocannon :(

I think they got some historical evidence behind that, not totally out of no where let me check.
