More diverse loadouts for Il-10?
« on: October 07, 2019, 01:06:31 PM »

I notice that the Il-10 doesn't have as many loadouts as the Il-2. Granted, they're both stock aircraft, but is there a chance that modders could give the Il-10 the missing loadouts?

Also, from what I've read, they could carry a pair of FAB-250s.

Nobody is interested in Soviet aircraft. I have long been waiting for the edited downloads for the IL-2 of various modifications, Pe-2 and Pe-3. But I-16 and Yakov did.
I hope someday modders will get their hands on Soviet planes. When swooping down on Thunderbolts and Messerschmitts.

True, 2 FAB-250s are mentioned in the Il-10's documentation as one of the variants. But I don't think they were used in the combat. Not in 1945, definitely. I have no information about the North Korean loadouts.
400 kg (probably 480 kg in one regiment) was maximum in 1945. 500 kg was considered as overload and 600 kg was possible but not recommended.

Current Il-10 loadout (weapons.properties) in BAT:
Il-10.4xRS82                                                                   4x RS-82 rockets
Il-10.4xBRS82                                                                  4x BRS-82 rockets
Il-10.4xRS132                                                                  4x RS-132 rockets
Il-10.4xM13                                                                    4x M-13 rockets
Il-10.176xAJ-2                                                                 4x AJ-2 cassette
Il-10.144xPTAB2_5                                                              144x PTAB-2.5 bombs
Il-10.12xAO10                                                                  12x AO-10 bombs
Il-10.4xFAB50                                                                  4x FAB-50 bombs
Il-10.4xFAB50_4xRS82                                                           4x FAB-50, 4x RS-82
Il-10.2xFAB100                                                                 2x FAB-100 bombs
Il-10.2xFAB1004BRS82                                                           2x FAB-100, 4x BRS-82
Il-10.2xFAB1004BRS132                                                          2x FAB-100, 4x BRS-132
Il-10.4xFAB100                                                                 4x FAB-100 bombs

Compared to the tables from the books of Oleg Rastrenin (probably, the best expert in this topic), the following loadouts are missing:
- 2xFAB250 (of 4 subtypes)
- 120xZAB 2.5 and 2.5-1
- 12xAO25 and 25-35
- 54xAO10 and AO10-6.5
- 232xAO2.5-2
- 176xAO2.5
- 60xPTAB10-2.5
It would be interesting to have ZABs which were probably more relevant in 1945 (and in Korea?) than outdated AJ-2.

2x FAB 250 sounds fairly easy, I suppose you can consider that done.
The massed packages are often quite a mess and may need time I do not have.
