bibliograpy from the museum

event, gold or techtree, it can be make the payload lesser for avoid problems

Are there more? Yes, we have models of War Thunder or the captured American B-17, but with this I want to show that Japan has and deserves bombers as well as the rest of the nations

You want player controlled medium bombers? Why? You kmow this will not fix Japans lack of CAS right?

I gave concepts, but, if you are worried about medium bombers, then explain to me why Germany has the ju 188, the Soviets have one in br 2, the Americans have the A-20 (which I repeat and repeat in my country is considered a light bomber), japas could have light ones like the planes who are in war thunder :>

I just think theres way more options out there that youre over looking. Theres still plenty of heavy fighters, attackers, dive bombers and highspeed bombers that could be added before we add Medium bombers.

You could add:
Ki-45 Tei
Ki-102 Otsu
D4Y3
B7A2
P1Y1
Ki-32
Ki-48
N1K
A7M2

And many more before you even consider adding a slow, cumbersome med bomber that has only a slightly better bombload anyway.

All factions should have medium bombers

These should be added as well

As I always say more toys more better. I want every vehicle added!
