The Railway bridges always were a difficult purpose for bombing aviation since even close breakups of the bombs of the calibre 500-2000кг did not inflict him serious damage.
The Bombs by calibre 50-70-100кг were not too efficient even under exact hit in flooring of the bridge.
If take into account that in play bombing can be produced with devilish accuracy, but height of the unset in change from real using can be produced with бреющего flight, that given modes (1000кг on destroyed stairwell of the bridge) wholly corresponds to to realities.
For that author enormous spasibo.!

Apropos. Wanted to elaborate beside dear author, no beside it in plan under edit on such principle locomotives and coaches.
Presently they are destroyed by fire machine gun calibre 7.62-7.92mm that not there is well.
We Beg pardon for my twisted english.
I have to was use the program by translator.

I get what you are saying =FPS=Cutlass (I think)....
I hope you will find that this does roughly what you describe actually.

Trains...yes...its possible to make them tougher , its already done but only at 'alpha stage' ! ....some other people far more talented than myself are really going the whole nine yards however so you will have to be patient .

Got it ! Thank you

I agree. Girder bridges were very hard to take down in real life (much like radar towers). Even a direct hit with a large bomb may just blow off panels without destroying the main supports. This may leave a large hole in it, but it is also a hole easily rebuilt. To demolish a bridge in such a way that it couldn't be repaired is not a guaranteed thing.

One of the problems with the way bridges are modelled in Il-2, is that they are armoured but with essentially no hitpoints. This mod is excellent, but it has the quirk that a single 1000kg bomb is essentially guaranteed to pull down a bridge, whereas more than twenty 100kg bombs have no effect whatsoever.

This means there is not point attacking a non-wooden bridge with anything less than a 250kg bomb (even if you hit the bridge with more than 80% of the bombload of a TB-3 or He-111).

P.S. if you get a chance - the trains should be much more durable as well - even if they could be lit n fire or have the cargo destroyed, the actually load carrying members tended to be virtually immune to anything smaller than a 20mm cannon.

Bridge are civilian constructions. I think that a 250 kg bomb should destroy all bridge types in a direct hit.
The most important is to prevent blast damage for light and medium bomb (50, 100, 250 kg, 500 kg)

But here is as specialists described the result of the using FAB-250 on bridge the most simplest design . Aviabomba burst (the photo 3.45) in 4 m from corner stone vertical abutment railway bridge in point, marked on picture v2 , and in two metres from farm D on the other hand bridge. The Blast has formed the crater by diameter 9 m and depth 1,4 m, has wrested two stairwells wooden выстилки пешеходной of the track, laid on beem с-с , and has damaged the beem C . Meantime prevent motion a train not to manage, and railway bridge could function without correction of the ways .

Thank you for this great mod!

Great mod! One of the first things I did to challenge myself after I figured out the He-111 bombsight was to fire up the QMB and try to hit a bridge. Imagine my disappointment when my rather poor aim of fairly small bombs took down a bridge anyways. This has bothered me ever since.
