Questions about the various ordinances in BAT Part 1
« on: January 19, 2023, 02:07:25 AM »

Hello everyone,

While I am working on an Alternative Ordinance List (AOL) for BAT, there are vast information that surprised me.  It is my goal to give add the information to the equipment and weapons in weapon.properities.  With that, for any of us who are not entirely familiar with the ordinance purposes, we can use them properly in IL-2 1946 BAT while gaining the knowledges from them.

At the same time, there are times when the ordinance comes up without the specific names and I do not want to assume and give them inaccurate names by mistake.  Hence is why I have many questions here.  I appreciate the supports and knowledge from SAS community.  Here are the list of questions.




Douglas A-20C, 1941

Question #1:
IS it supposed to be 100lb instead of 100kg bomb?

Quote
A-20C.2x100                                                                    2x 100kg bombs

Question #2
What kind of warhead are does these US bombs use? General Purpose or High Explosive?  Are they orignially made in Il-2 1946?  IF they are originally from Il-2 1946, what are their accurate name?

Question #4: There are various 5" HVAR.  I realize that HVAR-AT have Anti-Tank purpose.  However, I am confsued with 'A" and "N" from two HVAR's below.  What kind of warhead or purpose do they serve as HVAR?

HVAR5A
HVAR5N

Question #5:  Since there are many different torpedoes in BAT and I want to make sure I give this torpedo the accurate name, in order, to avoid the confusion.  What is the name of this torpedo?

Question #9: I am unable to find the information on both Swedish and Finnish bombs.  I need help from someone who have the information about the following ordinance:

Svenska

500kg M41
250 M41 Minbomb


Regarding the Swedish bombs the closest info I found was about:
500kg m/41 minbomb
250kg m/40 minbomb

The information is in Swedish, but should be understandable using an online translator IMHO, if not ask.
