Manual for Ju-88A-1, maybe useful too.

According to my reference stuff the bomb loads for the A-4 were:

- up to ten 50kg bombs in both the forward and rear bomb-bays (20 bombs in total) or

- up to ten 50kg bombs in the rear bay and one 1220 litre fuel tank in the forward (the most common configuration) or

- one 1220 litre fuel tank in the forward bay and one 680 litre tank in the rear bay.

 

It seems that the forward bay was commonly blanked over with a belly plate so more fuel could be carried.  With only fuel in the wing tanks, more bombs could be carried (2400kg including on the wings) but with a range (for the A-1) of only 1260km. The tank in the the forward bomb-bay would extend the range to 2340km with 1500kg of bombs.

 

Here's a diagram of the cowling development.

The bombs...positioned standing up like in the SM-79 or laying down as in the B-17 ?

Now I´ll faint... Operation Olympic in sight!!!!!

[Wrench 9,848]

sigh....

 

now, that means I really have to go back and rebuild the Okinawa/Home Islands terrain (now that I have access to correct, period maps of ALL the cities...), and can 'get it right'.
