This mod is an alternative to old AAA B-25 cockpit mod, but also contains additional weapons loadouts, that why this warning notice is placed here.
Mod gives 3 more cockpit positions, compared to AAA cockpit mod: co-pilot, waist gunners positions for H-1 & Bendix turret operator position for G-1 & C-25.


Bendix turret periscope view

UPDATE: Six .50 cal turret machine-guns is not a dead weight on ground attack missions anymore - AI gunners now can use it to shoot ground tagets.

Weapon loadouts extension or "Strafers" mainly focused on naval weaponry.
Additional loadouts to experiment with:

40x parafrag bombs
40x parafrag bombs + 8x 5" HVAR
8x 5" AP HVAR rockets
6x Mk 53 charges +8x 5"AP HVAR
8x Mk 53 deepcharges
8x Mk 53 charges +4x Mk 25 markers
Mk 34 torpedo + 8x 5" AP HVAR
Mk 34 torpedo +4x Mk 25 markers
Mk 34 torpedo + 8x Mk 24 flares
Mk 34 torpedo +4x Mk 53 charges
2x Mk 34 torpedoes

for B-25J-1 in v4.10_ only:

4x RAZON guided bombs
2x SWOD Mk 9 "Bat" bombs

U can get Mk 24 flares, Mk 25 markers, Mk34 torpedoes & Mk53 deep charges with P2V Neptune mod by Flakiten, Nightshifter & Jolly (posted by SAS~CirX): https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,774.0.html

To install, remove previous version of my mod and unpack the RAR folder to your \MODS directory. U will, probably, have to comment old AAA B-25's cockpit mods, if U have some.

Have fun !

Probably, old AAA mod loaded first. Comment it by placing '-' sign as first symbol in folder name.

Curriently working on similar B-25G-1 Strafer mod. It have more cockpits, player control over Bendix turret, and gunners, capable to target and strafe ground targets. It's funny to teach AI to do bad things

Can you make also versions with stock loadout ?

Well, I planned this feature for B-25G-1 first, but it turns out so, I maked this for H-1 earlier.
It's a small programming routine, that makes gunners on AI and player B-25s attack ground targets.



Strafer's gunners wreaking havoc on plane parking, riddling with bullets everything in view.



Brand new way to strafe columns - fore guns firing on ingress, turrets on egress.

Gunners control
U can instruct your gunners to shoot surface target this way - look at desired enemy target (in any cockpit or external view) and press "sight automation" button. Appropriate turrets will start tracking designated surface target and start shooting from 1 km range. To cancel target press "sight automation" button again. If U using padlock and setting or changing padlocked [ground] target, gunners will change aim accordingly.
Gunners control not working, then autopilot engaged - AI takes control.
AI planes handling own gunners by itself (one difference: on AI-controled planes, upper turret will not lock on gnd targets in fore hemisphere).

So, turn on your mood music (I prefer Walkürenritt), and go hunting with good company aboard
