If the Il-2I was capable of carrying up to 250kg ordnance, why do you have the 2XFAB250 loadout, that's actually 500kg or twice the maximal payload????

Maybe change it to a 1xFAB250 on the centerline?

Sorry,

I was not clear. The IL-2I did not have a centerline pylon for Bombs. Here is the quote from the book (the book mentioned in the original post). This should clear things up: "Moreover, each of the Il-2I's external bomb racks could carry bombs up to 551lb (250kg)."
