Your homework is a bug report for Lancaster with 500lb Incidinary bombs :P

You beat me to it : ) Maybe we need a game where the aim is to eliminate as many civilians as possible.

It’s all a bit of a sore point. I’m surprised Gaijin did the napalm.
What next? An Auschwitz map?

What nonsense. Maybe we should give up the stoves, because you keep bringing up your sore point? What does napalm have to do with Auschwitz?

Napalm isn’t the same as WW2-era Incendiaries. Slightly different. One is more of a jelly gas substance and the other is more like a tank of fuel with a fuse.

Napalm is a battle field weapon where as the type of incendiary used by the Brits and US for area bombing is were not. Perhaps the most diplomatic way of putting it.

Heavy bombers did bomb areas where enemy tank units were thought to hiding but obviously not with little milk bottle sized incendiaries designed to set fire to wood and paper buildings and civilian roof spaces.

In short there is no target for for UK incendiaries in the game.

Thinking about, They might be fun on a spawn zone filled with SPAA : )

Would they have a place in the Air game more so ? I play it much.

Make a bug report if the specific bombs are already in game, and a suggestion otherwise. But I’m also fairly certain that strategic bombers just aren’t given firebombs in general, possibly due to graphical issues of rendering so many flames simultaneously.

Well… 2 year old bug report for Buc S2 getting Napalm so…

I want to live the American dream as well.

There was an experimental 2700lb one designed for Pathfinder squadrons to use as a target marker

Basically a 4000lb H.C. filled with 1500lb of gelled fuel

Yeah there’s a few kinds of marking bombs we could get. And also war crime bombs of another variety.
