[QUOTE=O'Neil;46045158]Kinda lame they go with the B-57 without the armament.[/QUOTE]
Only the first 8 prototypes had no armament. The rest had 50s or 20mm cannons.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;46044576]Oh my god the IL-28 gets a [I]3000kg[/I] bomb[/QUOTE]
I will not be happy until we get the Pe-8 and that Pe-8 comes with the fabled FAB-5000 bomb.

They're really riding hard on the first Skyraider being implemented as an early AD-1 Skyraider.
You know what that means? Instead of the nice 4 x 20mm, we're gonna get a dazzling 2.

"balance"
Not sure what sort of ballance is that, when you take all the new jet bombers into account.
Nippon - 4x20mm
Russia - 2x23mm
Germany - Arado
US/Britland - LEL
War thunder is like an abusive girlfriend. I fuckin hate so many things about the game and i still find myself coming back to it every night.
[QUOTE=TheLolrus;46045090]Oh holy crap, I was at that air show today. The F-22 was [i]loud[/i][/QUOTE]
Hah yeah. The harrier seemed even louder to me though. I was struggling to put some earplugs in while filming it. Then again I still had the earplugs in when the F-22 came around.
I was filming just outside of the seating area in a black baseball hat and sunglasses. Don't know if you saw me. :v:
that ho.229 handles and flies so bad.. sheesh

According to the devs the Interdictors are coming later with their "soon"ness depending on how effective they are right now. If they are crap then ones with guns are higher priority.
[QUOTE=Skwee;46045093]Pretty sure it isn't a bomber[/QUOTE]

what else would it be

its actually 4x 30mm on the nip jet bombers
but calling them bombers in the same sense as the Il-28 and Canberra isnt really fair, they are more like jet fighter bombers. Their payloads are nothing compared to the Il-28, Canberra, or Arado.
[editline]22nd September 2014[/editline]
Although since they are technically classified as bombers, wont they get bomber air spawns despite basically being fighters in everything but name only?

I remember reading somewhere that it didn't get a bomb load and it got some japanese 20 mm turrets, but apparently it does get bombs, so disregard my previous comment. Not even sure about the turrets now. For some reason Doom14 didn't take a look at it in the video he posted, unless I missed it somewhere.

The Harrier had that piercing whine, but I think for actual volume the Raptor might have had it beat. And I didn't notice you, but if you were filming long enough I'm probably in one of your pics somewhere.

In the dev blog they posted about it, it seems to be 100% identical to the normal B-17 apart from the markings and Japanese bombloads
[editline]22nd September 2014[/editline]
nope it even uses American bombs nevermind
I didn't look at it because it was another copy-paste premium and I just didn't give a shit. It's literally a reskinned B-17E/L (I think, should have a ball turret) for Japan.
The only premiums that are new with unusual bits is that the German Tempest doesn't get 150 Octane Fuel and the Russian P-47D can carry (Soviet!) bombs, but not rockets.
B-17/E (Jpn) has Japanese anti-ship bombs I think.

A couple months ago there was a D-9 for 600k obama bucks. Paying more for a lamer plane, pfff.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;46048984]B-17/E (Jpn) has Japanese anti-ship bombs I think.[/QUOTE]
From what I saw on dev, it had purely American bombs, as they were all in lbs. I remember 6 x 1000lbs, 4 x 2000lbs, and some number of 500lbs bombs (I think.)

I'm slighty worried that there's no pictures, and no mention of scale, so i can only imagine it'll end up looking something like this after the sale

There are pictures, they just get adblocked for some reason. Disable adblock and you should be able to see them.

Nope, the weight is right. I'd imagine it must not be in flyable condition or something, though.
There's also those three-quarter size p-51s that go for about $60,000 for a full kit.

Shoo', if the thing don't work, you could always just buy a truckload of those big hobby-RC jet engines and strap 'em all over the thing :v:
