When equipping the 190 F-8 with bombs, you will notice that it has a different bomb release control panel than that found on the standard 190 A-8. With this different control panel comes some different options for releasing bombs, namely:

 

  • The "Toggle Bomb Release Mode" key command determines when the centerline bomb(s) is(are) released and is marked by the Roman numerals I, II, and III. Your options with this command are: Drop Centerline Bomb(s) First; Drop Centerline Bomb(s) after First Pair of wing-mounted bombs; and Drop Last.
  • The "Bomb Release Delay" command determines how many bombs are dropped at a time. There are three options here: Drop One at a Time (like on the standard A-8); Drop All at the Same Time; and Drop All with a 70 ms interval between each bomb.

 

The F-8's Panzerblitz rockets have two firing options: Salvo (all are fired with with a short delay between each pair), or 1 pair at a time.

It is important to know this panel when flying without "technochat". Thx.
