Any chance adding cargo carrying to HE111?

[TempestV]

Having a lot of fun with C47A, Li2 (She's GUTLESS! hahaha You want full fuel tanks or full cargo load. You can't have both ?) and the  G   L   I   D   E   R.

Not asking for a new model just something to add to the HE111 armaments slot.

Couldn't find photos of HE111's dropping paratroopers. But I know I read it somewhere. So I'm not asking for that.?

And droppable supply containers please. He-111s regularly flew missions to supply cut off units.

While making the airlift campaign i came across a source that told about he111s dropping "food bombs" to the encircled units in Stalingrad. No pictures but i imagined empty bombs filled with food. (Probably not what it was) but you can turn off the fuse for the bombs (control +s) and pretend they are supplies when dropping them ?

Without knowing exactly the details how they have done it back then, but yes that would in theory be possible. Just replace the mini-bombs inside the AB-Container with food or whatever. We however have no AB-containers in the game.

And general cargo loads.

 

Late in the war,  He-111s often replaced Ju-52s in the transport role in dangerous sectors as their faster speed made them less vulnerable.

 

 

And don't forget the V1 loadout ?

Flying at wavetop level in the middle of night with a 2000kg bomb attached and RAF night fighters everywhere... Great fun ?

An example of the 111 doing just this:

Hi, here a preliminary Container (choose e.g. 4xSC250 for loadout)

a SC1000 Container is possible too, hanging under the wings similar as in the video. But due to the smaller diameter with a ugly gap to the plane.

But you could activate it by removing the xxx.

Of course when this mod is activated all SC250 are containers. To be considered in the mission design.
