Looking great Zorin.

Finally the IJN bombs will get updated as well.

Thanks.

If I can keep this pace and TD will accept my work without objection there can be no reason to not have all IJA and IJN bombs in 4.12 as well.

Zorin, you have mentioned different skins for bombs depending on time or theatre. Will your japan bombs have two skins ? Army and navy used different colors for bombs.

There will be different IJA and IJN bombs for starters. Each wearing the correct skin with appropriate base colors and color bands befitting the type of bomb.

Great ! Can't wait...

Zorin, do you have any good sources for these Japanese armaments? Reason I ask is that I'd love to see the Type 99-1 99-2 and other weapons represented in IL-2 instead of using the nearest German, American, or British equivalent but I've struggled to find any resources anywhere on the details (individual shells, etc.).

These are descriptions of all projectiles used by the Japanese Army and Navy, though it might be a bti too basic for your needs.

I'm not sure... I may be in over my head at this point but I'll send it in and see what can be made of it. It's much more detailed than anything else I've been able to find!

Let's hope it will prove helpful.

First page updated with a list of Navy bombs and the first 60kg bomb rendered.

Would it be possible to add German and Japanese air-to-air bombs to the game, that were used against Allied bomber formations or is this beyond the scope of the project?
I guess doing the models and textures shouldn't be a problem, but it would also require new effects and changes to the AI.
