Thanks for the list, much appreciated.
Wondering if those 2 2000 lb'ers might be enough to take out a bunker/ship.
Question is: where do you rearm?! Crash after every drop?

Good question indeed. I loved how MP worked in Over G Fighters - when you ran out of ammo you returned to your homebase to be rearmed. Your team mates had to provide cover.

Ah, another OGF nut! Don't forget the brilliant addition of the neutral island.
It didn't always go perfectly smoothly though sharing the space...

Correct, you can even get a 2nd drop or more in a single pass with enough altitude. Still, with smaller rooms, people do run out and then they're stuck having to crash themselves to reload. A home base airstrip to rearm/refuel would be nice. Or perhaps there is something we don't know about that will handle the job.

That is the amount of bombs you can drop at once. You normally have 32 bombs but can only drop what is on the pylons. They reload after a few seconds until you have got through your entire supply. Once you have used them all that's it. The only bomber I have flown online and managed to drop my entire allocation is with the German jet bomber (Arnado ???) because no one spotted I was going to use it in the pre-game lobby so they never took a He163 or a Me262 which are the only planes that have a hope of ever catching me and shooting me down.

Every other bomber I've tried in Strike mode gets shot down before they have used all 32 bombs as long as there is at least one fighter on defence.

There are no weapon unlocks for any of the 109's. Does that mean the later 109's have the underwing cannon by default?
