I will gladly add to my game, thanks to all involved for their time and effort especially Dandolo513.

I won't fly it personally but will create missions to shoot it down.

So here it is the update nr 2.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/bbg0pdqlsaa6380/Q1W1-Tokai+update+2.7z/file

I hope a good samarithan will be so kind to realize some skins. I don't know it will be useful Stanislao's skin to be used as template.

Good. But the Weapons needs to requiring. Bombs, depth charges, its a Anti-submarine bomber. It also comes with equipment to hunt down submarines.

Ehm KT i dunno how much you know about Japanese ASW weapons of ww2 but they were rather primitive compared with what the Allies fielded...
also Lorna was not the best and most sophisticated of ASW aircraft  so the weapons fit is quite ok IMHO...

It has 250kg Bombs or depth charges.

It is an Anti-Submarine Light Bomber. 

It can also Fitted with 1 or 2 forward firing 20mm type 99 cannon

Ohh, Speaking of which. It has Three addition Equipment. The Type 3 MAD (KMX) Type 3 Ku-6 Model 4 Radar and ESM Antenna equipment..

It can Added with 250kg of bombs or Depth Charges..

Post by: Griffon_301 on June 30, 2022, 10:55:33 AM
I seriously doubt that either Japanese Mad systems or their surface search radar was much good against submarines...

compared to what the Allies fielded as ASW aircraft, the Lorna was primitive and it was not very successful against submarines if one takes the few books that are available about IJN anti-submarine tactics and warfare as sources...

Title: Re: Kyushu Q1W1 Tokai Lorna
Post by: Griffon_301 on July 02, 2022, 02:50:10 AM
btw... thanks for that bird from my side..
one small thing I noticed though is that Lorna tries to dogfight with you and is not even bad at it... it turns tightly and sharply and climbs like mad sometimes either making it a challenge to fight against, even in a Corsair or Hellcat...
my dogfighting skills are a bit rusty after 6 months of no flying, but I think the FM could need some tweaks in that regard....
Title: Re: Kyushu Q1W1 Tokai Lorna
Post by: Dandolo513 on July 02, 2022, 03:06:04 AM
Hallo, thanks for appreciation.
Concerning FM, it has been create for a subkiller plane, it is not a heavy fighter.
However, I am far to be an expert on this field and I will report your kind advice to CWatson.
Have a nice weekend.
Dandolo513
Title: Re: Kyushu Q1W1 Tokai Lorna
Post by: Griffon_301 on July 02, 2022, 04:16:54 AM
thanks a lot...
well, I found it strange that this bird turned into me at a distance of about 1000ft  and managed to pass me nearly headon afterwards, even climbing after the merge and trying to get above me... was really funny watching this guy trying to dogfight me... DM also looks a bit off too as the Lorna showed hit marks all over its fuselage after I Hit it repeatedly with six fifty cals, it didn't burn though and only crashed after I shot the crew dead....
Title: Re: Kyushu Q1W1 Tokai Lorna
Post by: Dandolo513 on July 02, 2022, 04:34:01 AM
About DM, the files are taken from a similar plane.
I will check collisions hooks to improve realism after the plane has been shooted.
Thanks for these advices.
Have nice dogfight.
Poor Lorna shooted as a pigeon   :D :D

Post by: Dandolo513 on July 02, 2022, 11:43:48 AM
I am happy to have realized an unusual plane, something different from fighters , bombers and so on. My mods are not masterpieces, but I like to suppose are quite original.
I have another strange thing on which I am working.
But it is a very long path to have it ready.
Best regards

Post by: Dandolo513 on July 02, 2022, 10:49:33 PM
Hallo Griffon_301
Following i relay CWatson's script:
##############
The Lorna is implemented as a Stormavic, which is an attack plane. Fighter implements are Fighter, BNZFighter, and TNBFighter, none of which the Lorna has.

Ciao.

The tankburns are positioned on CF, WingIn and WingMid .

I suppose they are enough but i am ready for every suggestion.

If these update will be considered correct i will post it.

Hallo Gents, i am tryng to add a new skin for Lorna, but it happens IL2 does't show the new skin and the result is:

(https://i.postimg.cc/ydzxxVH4/skin-smaller-than-default.png) (https://postimg.cc/JyPMdC0P)

I have read a post on which the modder says : if the default skin is bigger than a skin i want to add, IL2 will not show this different skin.

So i understand i need to reduce the dimesion of the default skin to install new ones.

If this is correct, how i can change this default skin?

Best regards

Hi Dondolo, Thank you for the update 8),
As a fan of this aircraft I have to ask :P :-[, although I have no evidence for this, Lorna as an anti-submarine aircraft must have been able to drop sea mines, flares, maybe put up smoke screens and + a larger selection of types of torpedoes,
would it be possible to arm Lorna with some weapons from here?:
Air Dropped Sea Mines

Torpedoes and Gliding torpedoes Pack

Hallo Piotrek,
thanks for appreciation.

I will relay to CWatson. But, i think we should load this plane with its historical weapons. I have added a torpedo just to improve its antisub skills. However i will report You .

Bye.
Title: Re: Kyushu Q1W1 Tokai Lorna
Post by: Piotrek1 on November 14, 2022, 02:33:48 PM

yes I agree, the armament should be as consistent as possible with historical facts.

Not so; this cousin is just related by designation and name; is a single engine aircraft.
Q3W1 is still a  WIP v3.1+ ; here the  link to Dandolo's post:

I have edited, also the Nankai Q3w1.

Hello,
I did a quick and dirty repaint of the Tokai cockpit (which is a DH Mosquito stand-in) to make it look more Japanese.
Hopefully this will make your Tokai sub-hunting more immersive.

Before:
(https://i.imgur.com/irWpy9a.jpg)
After:
(https://i.imgur.com/7dtD2rm.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/4jYqVgF.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/k4LmPtq.jpg)

Limitations:
-I don't have the skills to repaint the damaged instruments, so if your dashboard gets shot, it will reveal its true English colours :)
-I only re-labelled the most prominent instruments in Japanese, to the best of my knowledge. There are a few tiny placards in English that are too small to read, so I didn't bother.

Hi!

I have just installed this great aircraft....

If I install it from first post I have the old loadouts of bombs and droptank but if I add the ASW cod from here: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,71927.0.html adding the cod folder with a single file inside (-1722777280) and the overwritting classfile (D2DCA804E1E8BFC0) I have only default and empty loadount instead of the full loadouts range....

Any help please?
