REARM Bug - BOMBS on the P-38 Lightning Airframe

Brief description:

Using the RRR function for BOMBS on the P-38 Lightning rearms 1 less Bomb.


Detailed description, conditions:

Using the REARM for BOMBS in any loadout on the P-38 Lightning (any server, any map, any season) result in THE FIRST BOMB to be rearmed getting immediately dropped on the ground (player can hear release audio clinch in the cockpit, outside you get an impact audio line and a visible impact splash goes up in the air - the bomb itself sinks into the ground and is not visible, it also is not armed thankfully). The rearming of bombs continues in sequence and the player gets a completion message (aka the "rearming bombs" message disappears). 
The player is left with one less bomb than the loadout should provide. I have noticed and seen this since RRR was introduced but this was the first time I got screenshots viewing a different plane and receiving confirmation from other players about this happening to them too.


Additional assets (videos, screenshots, logs):

Screenshots in sequence attached, I missed the splash unfortunately.
The first screenshot shows when the third bomb is getting attached in sequence (and they do get attached in balance sequence, so if a player would abort and scramble the plane would not be off-balance - great oversight and attention to detail!). The first bomb on the right on the central rack on the right got dropped and splashed, then the first bomb on the left got loaded correctly onto the left central rack. The rearm then completes in the correct sequence with the central rack on the right missing its bomb.


Your PC config data (OS, drivers, specific software):

WIN X, Intel Core i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz (4 CPUs), SSD Hitachi HDS721050CLA660, 16GB, Radeon RX 570 8 GB, Graphic driver version 26.20.15015.1007, DirectX 12

WTR(way to reproduce): single or multiplayer? Problem when playing online?

Can you repeat and record a track with this problem?

WTR(way to reproduce):

Multiplayer, online with no other problems present (apart from the current baseline, fe arbitrary invisible plane bug).
Setting up a new server for testing or joining an existing community server with RRR function (currently only KOTA-Knights of the Air has RRR available for Multiplayer).
As stated in OP bug occurs on any airfield on any map in any season for the P-38 airframe.

Trackfiles recorded for loadouts:

  • 6 x 500 pds
  • 4 x 1000 pds (2x from 2 different map missions)

Trackfiles provided via DM (Direct Message) including the text of this post.

Workaround:

After completion of the rearm the player can restart the rearm process. The missing (dropped) first bomb will be loaded and this time it will NOT be dropped. Workaround only applicable if player before or has not testfired his guns - otherwise the rearm process will start unloading and reloading all belts first.
