B25 H & J No bombadier?

Postby spaghitte_snake2 » Mon Mar 21, 2005 3:59 am

I am a newbie on CFS3 and I just upgraded to a Gforce FX 5500 PCI graphics card everythings seams to work fine ( just down loaded the latest drivers) except I can not go into the bombadier station with F7,( or any other Key). I do not know if these bombers did not have a bombadier or if somthing else is wrong. I can go to the bombadier with B26 and with the Ju88 and even with the B25C but not with the B25 H or J.  What is wrong? ???

On the -H, the bombardier would have had a tight fit with a 75mm gun occupying the tunnel he'd need to get into the nose, .....

CFS3 default B-25J is a gun nose.

The B-25J was initially released as a glass nose bomber version. The transparent nose with its bombardier could be replaced at the factory by a solid nose that was equipped with eight 0.50-inch machine guns.

With this modification, the aircraft was designated as B-25J-11, -17, -22, -27, -32, or -37, depending on which production block the modification took place.

With its maximum armament of eighteen guns, the solid-nosed B-25J was the most heavily-armed attack aircraft in the Allied arsenal.

Since the B-25J is a gun nose with .50's filling what would be the bombardiers compartment.
