Bat Bomb on the B24 (flyable)

[Tolwyn]

Withdrawal Reason: I have it on good authority that the B24-D never was fitted or intended to carry the BAT bomb; so the readme in 4.10m was referring to a different model B-24 (maybe the C version). I'm completely cool with that answer and I was able to learn something new!

It would be historically inaccurate to fit the B24-D (the flyable one introduced in 4.13m) to carry the BAT bomb.

Would it be possible to add the ability for the B24 (human flyable) to carry two Bat Bombs?

From the 4.10m Readme:

This bomb is fitted on F4U-1D (flyable) and B-24 (AI). Once dropped, it will lock on the best naval target that it finds. A radar seeker is simulated, looking forward and slightly tilted towards the ground. You should be sure to point the aircraft roughly towards the target, but also that there are no other ships around nearer or much bigger which the seeker might lock onto instead of the one you chose to attack. The bomb does not recognize friend from foe so be sure that there are no friendly ships in front of you or directly below you that the seeker could acquire as targets!

That would be great, indeed.

I agree! That would be cool!

This was about B-24J. But it will be cool
