I have a Brit. pilot flying the F.E.2b. This ac will carry bombs. I've noticed something strange when selection a bomb load out of (2) 65 and (8)25 bombs.

An under view in flight shows all bombs attached to the ac. The 65s to the center line and 4- 25s under each lower wing.

 

When i rotate through select next weapon, only the 25s show. no sign of the 65s in the rotation. When i drop the 25s they all drop, 2 on each click. Then it shows i have no ordnance left, ie the 65s dont even register as being aboard. The same thing happens with a loadout of 25s,65s and one signal flare. The flare shows in rotation and drops but no 65s. Looks like OFF is not reconizing these bombs.

 

Has anyone else enounterd this ?

Hard for me to tell flying for the Kaiser. The only time I see krumpet bombs fall, they are still attached to the aeroplane carrying them. But then, they are obscured by the thick plumes of smoke spewing from the engine cowling.
