Nyghtfall Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) It's a model, but maybe useful. http://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=2246 Manual for Ju-88A-1, maybe useful too. http://www.deutscheluftwaffe.de/archiv/Dokumente/ABC/j/Ju%2088/Ju%2088%20A-1%20Betriebsanleitung%201940.pdf Edited April 1, 2015 by Nyghtfall Quote
+LloydNB Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) 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. Edited April 3, 2015 by LloydNB Quote
+Veltro2k Posted April 2, 2015 Author Posted April 2, 2015 The bombs...positioned standing up like in the SM-79 or laying down as in the B-17 ? Quote
