On WW2 By Thems its on Taxi, and the Bombs are sitting on the outside of the Aircraft Bodey.

? attached to body? if so can you post it?

Load wise its not a problem, the Torpedo it can carry has weight 1700 KG.

I think you have to do your research again...

See WW2 By Thems for Details

More specific please.

You need to buy the Series WW2 by Thems, its a great great great series.
Its 30 Episodes, each on 1 hour, and all 30 about WW2.

Its made in 1950's-1960's by Thems Production (Very High Quallety and Recognised Documentry Company of 1950's-1960's).
The Series Interwiev the Actual Leders of WW2,  Leaders like Zuikov, Nimitz, Albert Spare, Dönitz, ect ect and also interwiev alot of Political Leders of WW2. The series interwiev leaders and political figures of all sides, and the only thing thay have in common is that thay had a Important Role in WW2 and still was alive in 1950's.  It took them 8 Years or so to make the Series, and its truly something i recommend you to see, as the Actual Figures is there and talking, this means its no 2nd hand information, you will here the actual individuals say their opinion about alot of different subjects.// Im not 100% sure on all the equicmant thay used, i know thay produced many vertions of alot, and i think also you are correct that the "standard" torpedo used was lighter, maby arround 1000 or 1100 KG. (I know of a link who have some Torpedo Info: http://www.navweaps.com/Weapons/WTJAP_WWII.htm ) -- I was pritty sure thay also made a hevy vertion? (But i might be incorrect then i guess) -- Anyway, You should regardless see the series, it is truly great, its very very very nice. [8D]


 

Hey everyone. I'm going for the record for a reply to the oldest post
And it’s a WitP question (standard scenario 15) for all you old hands out there!!
Seriously though, does anyone know if there is an altitude restriction on the use of 800kg AP bombs? I seem to recall that the planes had to be set to bomb above 15,000ft before the 800kg bomb would be an option.

I want to know if I can expect to get 800kg bombs using Betties at 6000ft on a port attack?
Thanks!!

No height restriction that I have seen. I typically send in the Kates at 10,000 feet and they've usually preferred the 800kg bomb to torpedoes. I've sent in Nells and Bettys at various heights, from 5 to 15 thousand feet and overwhelmingly they've used 800kg bombs.
