Exclamation

Aircraft type: Ju 87 B-2
System Affected: Armament Switchboxes ASK-V and ASK-L
Description of Problem:



At the moment the red indicator signs (see yellow arrows in screenshot) are always on if a bomb is loaded. This is wrong as the manual LDv 576/4 clearly states that these lights only come on once the selected safety is being shut off.


Excerpt from LDv 576/4 on pre-flight testing of ETC and ASK

Bottom line is: The red indicator light must not show unless the bomb safety for that particular bomb has been switched off.

Aircraft type: Ju 87 B-2
System Affected: Armament Switchboxes ASK-V and ASK-L
Description of Problem:



Currently ASK-V is being treated as Master Arm Switch which is wrong. ASK-V controlled only the centerline ETC-500 with either a 250 or 500kg bomb and was NOT a Master Arm Switch for the bombload. This means arming a SC50 on one of the wingracks must not change the state of the ASK-V switch!

Aircraft type: Ju 87 B-2
System Affected: Missing Fuse Selector ZSK 243
Description of Problem:

The manual for the bombload of the Ju 87 B-2 (LDv 576/4) states



and



It's talking about setting the attack mode (dive or low level), switching on the main safety and setting the fuse (with out without delay) on a device called ZSK. No such device can be found in the current Ju 87 B-2. The manual also shows its position (to the right of the pilot's seat).





The last picture shows the the three switches on the ZSK 243. The leftmost controls the attack method (Horizontalanflug or Sturzflug), the middle the fuse (oV or mV) and the last is the main safety.
