The bombs on the P51C should be replaced with better ones

In the video you can see a 100 pound bomb hitting a direct hit on a puma, the puma is receiving almost no damage.

The 100 pound bombs are more comparable to the 50kg bombs (the ones the Moscow BF-109 got) than to the 250kg bomb, i suggest replacing the 100 pound bombs with 250lb bombs.

Two 250lb bombs are more comparable/ got similar TNT filler to the 1 250kg bomb the BF-109 got.

god yes, giving it 250 pounds should equal to the 250 kilo of the 109g-6 but spread between two bombs

Considering history, no.

We could just throw 1 230kg bomb on it as it could carry one historically, the plane had several hardpoints for bombs, however, it could only take one 230kg bomb, or multiple smaller bombs.

Honestly I didn’t check the plane loadout IRL, but in WT it got only 3: 2×500lb, 2×250lb and 2×100 so i just took the one that is similar to the 1×250kg of the germans in terms of HE filler.

still the 230kg bomb is much better than what’s already on 51c

I think these are the fighters, so we are supposed to get bombers later, I don’t think either fighter should have too powerful ground attack… unless it’s based on facts, was the BF110 a real menace to allies in terms of firepower (leave that to history buffs)

The p51 is a fighter not a bomber, this is a pretty dumb idea and will only make the P51, a plane which is pretty good at dealing with other planes and infantry, to be too op

bf109g-6 wants to know your location also the 51c is dog awful for dealing with infantry

Smh, Americans don’t make “fighters” they make multi purpose aircrafts the P51C is a multi role aircraft and probably the worst at dealing wuth infantry in the all game, because as you can see its bombs aren’t enough to destroy puma in direct hit.

even then american army airforce didn’t use the term fighters for their planes until after the war, they used the word pursuit hence P-51

Yeah - an unbalanced counter to the 110 f’sure … :rofl:

The 110 is constantly dominating the battlefield with its stupidly powerful 4 rockets.
The 109 is given the 250kg bomb in addition to being a very agile fighter

But no, I am gonna complain about the allied planes being OP despite them licking the remains of the battlefield and being at half as good at cas.

i think the p51 is bugged bc in the stat card it says the 12.7m m2 brownings have 1120 rounds but meanwhile in game it has 280 rounds

Good day Ladies and Gentlemen to your math 101 exams.
Question: A plane with 4 guns has a total sum of 1120 rounds of ammunition. How much ammo is this per gun?

I’m not sure why they gimped all American fighters on their bombs. They could even force them to carry a drop tank and a bomb if they wanted to make them more equivalent to German fighters.

The P-51C should be able to carry 500lbers on the two pylons.
