Commanders! Previously, you were only able to launch rockets and drop bombs in pairs, but in the upcoming “Tigers of Burma” update, you’ll be able to launch and drop them separately! This change to suspended armament will allow you to use your payload more effectively. Get your aircraft ready!

Wait this is already on Xbox RB for rockets and right dpad for bombs
No, you can only drop bombs and fire rockets in pairs right now
The change means that you can fire individual rockets instead of only firing 2 rockets at once for example, you can fire 10 rockets individually on the P47 after the update

Japanese should have some rockets.

So German aircraft will also come with both rockets and bombs in the future or only US can have OP attackers?

Can we have the order of bombs and rockets shown on the vechile X-ray in the hangar? For planes with ordinance far apart on the wings this would be very beneficial.

Bombs and rockets would fall on tanks beautifully if the latter had automatic map-based paint job, authentic faction decals and randomly generated turret numbers.
Ah, if only Darkflow cared about WW2 aesthetics…

Magnificent, the more options we have in the game the better!

I still dont understand how exactly this works. Do you just drop every bomb and rocket individually now? Is there a toggle, a setting, holding a button?

For once in life I hoped that you will complain about how unhistorical and stupid this change is, but nuh-uh.
Aircraft during ww2 dropped their bombs in pair for good reason, only 50kg difference in weight balance drastically increase the chance of stalling.
I honestly dont understand this buff when tanks are only getting more and more nerfs.
Why are aircraft arcade style when tanks are more realistic and difficult than WT simulator?
I honestly think that DF was too lazy to research which aircraft could drop one bomb at a time so they implemented this “feature” to all of them.
I hope its not just me ranting and others agree with me.

For clarification, you currently drop bombs and fire rockets two-at-a-time.
The change with the update means that you can fire rockets and drop bombs individually, for example:
- You can fire 10 rockets individually on the P-47 after the update
- You can drop all of the bombs on the Ju 188 individually
- And so on…

Will 188 be allowed to use all self-defense firepower in the next version? Just like the Tu-2S in the test server.

Fucking FINALLY! Lets go!

This greatly amplifies the CAS capabilities of many aircraft.
Like P51D can drop 500lb twice.
Ju188 and Tu2 just draw a line of blast zone on battlefield.
Don’t know why we need this change.

Then it should be added
All they have to do is copy it from WT.
B5N2 can drop 250 twice cause it’s bomb isn’t symmetrical from the start.
But allow fighter drop 250kg on one side is weird.
If we’re picking favourites, I’d consider the N1K2-J with Type 5 No. 6 Mod. 9 rockets ideal, in effect giving equivalent capability to the Wf. Gr. 21 rockets.
very good! it comes with historical & technical problems but thats a good price to pay for many weak planes becoming viable now (especially jap BR1/2/3 planes).
