moving this to right thread
someone published link on other thread to this book Me210(410) in Action (Sg.Signal, No.147).
p.34:
...these could include...a single SC 1800 bomb beneath the fuselage...
similar reference can be seen here(only Russian)
http://www.airwar.ru/enc/bww2/me410b.html
where it's said that internal fuel tank had to be removed to take SC1800 on.
http://www.xs4all.nl/~fbonne/warbirds/w ... me410.html
mentioned as option for experimental B-5 only.
but as said earlier, no information about combat usage has been found so far, therefore can't ask for SC1800...

did you consider SC 1800?
have to admit I can find no info about its usage in field units, but 1800 is mentioned often as one of proposed loadouts...
No we didnt.
What you have probably read is a statement about the B-5s maximum bombload, wich is often quoted
as beeing 1800 kgs.
Problem beeing that the maximum bomb the 410 could carry in the weapon bay was a specialized
SC 1000 and the ETC 50s under the fuselage could never carry a load of 800 kg.
