and the Phosphor Bombs and the PTAB stuff in several cassette variants and ... its quite a long list of crap they can dump on Wehrmacht assets.
let me copy that... by Herbert Leonard

Guns either 20/23 +7.7mm
Type 3 , AM38 /1944

Normal Load,
-192 PTAB 1.5
-6x50kg (DER-21)
-4x100
-200 Phosphore balls in AJ-2 Containers
-256 AO2.5
-112 AO2.5 (cast steel)
-4x38 AO-8
-4x30 AO-10
-4x20 AO-15
-2x12 AO-20
-2x12 AO-25
-4x184 ZAB-1
-4x108 ZAB 2.5
-4x22 ZAB-20
-4x216 Phosphor balls AJ-2

Overload?
In overload its the same but more of it. Most noteable differences are the wellknown 250kg bombs, and the Vap-250 Chemical dispensers.

This thing could do 390kph, and when you read a bit about it, you realize what a mean affair it was to be attacked by Shtormoviks -
they could throw Everything Russia had to offer at you, from the 30s Era Bombs, Bomblets, set you on Fire, rain Acid, to the classics 50 and 100, 250kg Bombs.
and then you have to add  some serious cannon and MG fire and 8 Rockets.

She is a Monster. You never wanna see her head your way.

I for one hope they do her justice, and are thorough in their Systems, FM, DM and Visuals.

Well I tried it some more, it is a significant lighter ac without Turret, but still you aint getting more load out  on her like you had in singleseat. It got stable flight controls but tend to be easy to dogfight with, except it bleed energy while doing it. It got more difference in weight after dropping ordinance than in other games , meaning it is more realistic in that way.
I find it easy to fly, witch is historical , It is heavy but easy.
I deem this to have even greater potential than CLOD have at the moment, I am afraid of the end product since my hope for this is even greater now than when I had not flown it.

Had a tail strike on a gun run.

Managed to land the aircraft with this kind of damage. ???

[Typhoon Ib]

not very credible O.o

But beautifuly COLD shots.
atmosphere is kickass!

[Herra Tohtori]

From engineering perspective, it's actually not impossible for this kind of thing to happen. If you have a collision somewhere, it's entirely possible that parts of the structure get damaged in a different way (compressive vs. tensile stress).

The biggest issue here is with the visual damage model, and explaining how the control cables can still move the elevator and rudder. Other than that I can see something like that happening, but I don't expect to be able to replicate this on purpose.

Other interesting screenshots...

all new! summer textures!
(eh, its a stalingrad map, therefor BoS, therefor legit)



sure, the tail was still attached at the top, therefor tension on top and compression on bottom, because the top attachment was above the elevator axis.
but as you say... the cables are at a precise length and having such a visual situation, they must be either stressed or loose. therefor little or no control.
i noted the very same dmg model on the F wings, and am not entirely pleased with it...

[LuseKofte]

Well the damage model is not correct, they still do not have the prop bend feature. You could never bring home a plane in that state by my opinion.
But there are really much talking for this plane, it will not be a easy kill and it will inflict much damage in a campaign

Nice Steven!

[rhinofilms]

Gurner are you out there?  Show these guys how you make such great looking smoke!

[LuseKofte]

Rhinofilms, you the same as flew with Trademe in atag server, hi I fly as LG1. Jaeger over there

[rhinofilms]

Yes that's me.

Nice to hear from you my friend.
