That is my point; they are not OP unless the necessary precautions are taken.

Ok, I didn’t know that napalm bombs were also called tanks. Confusing.

I could swear the ones we have in game are fuel tanks. I doubble checked and I was right.

It’s beyond me why they called it a fuel tank instead of napalm bomb. It doesn’t even require any changes in the code, just the name.

Are you not comprehending that belly fuel tanks were used for incendiary bombs lol?


Are you reading?

I don’t comprehend that devs called them “FUEL tanks” instead of “napalm bomb/tank” . The name implies the function.

Yes
And all I see is tank, not fuel tank. It’s a big difference.

FUEL TANKS WERE USED FOR INCENDIARY BOMBS; READ THE DOCUMENTS

None of those documents call them fuel tanks, just tanks (or bombs).
They are repurposed fuel tanks but they are no longer fuel tanks.

A jerry can fulled with explosives is no longer a jerry can, it’s a bomb.
Vodka with a fuze attached is no longer a vodka, it’s a molotov.
A fuel tank with a fuze is no longer a fuel tank, it’s a bomb based on a fuel tank.


It was the addition of a fuselage tank behind the cockpit halfway through production of the P-51B. This additional internal tank increased fuel capacity by 85 gallons: original P-51Bs only had 184 gallons in the wings. The addition increased total fuel to 269 gallons or some 30%. Further adding two 75 gal drop tanks you reached 419 gallons. The later D&H models carried 110 gal drop tanks for 489 gallons.

I don’t see the explodes with napalm part.

Do you know how a bomb works?

Yes. And I know how fuel tanks work. And they work completelly differently.

So using those names interchangeably is wrong, even if one’s design is based on the other.

If I take a fuel tank, add a fuze and replace the fuel with napalm (that can’t be used as fuel) then it doesn’t serve the role of a fuel tank any more, it’s a bomb.

Reminding me of RS2’s napalm

I’m not a war maniac, but I have to admit that napalm in RS2 is really cool.

Stop.

IF you read the document, you would understand that they converted them. That is why they go through the fuzing setup and call it “modified”.

If they modified them to be bombs, then they aren’t fuel tanks but bombs ffs.

If I moddify a water bottle by pouring in 0.5kg of plack powder and adding a fuze, it’s a damn hand grenade, not a water bottle.

Stop.

The modified fuel tanks are fuel tanks but simply filled with flammable gel and have a fuze.

If I fill up a water bottle with black powder, isn’t it just a water bottle with black powder?
