Can someone please correct the Blenheims deficiencies?
The early Blenheim IV kept the same defensive armament as the Mk.I but soon after production started the Mk.IV had the single Vickers machine gun replaced by either a double Vickers or Browning arrangement. Also the Blenheims bomb bay doors were held closed by bungees which were opened by the weight of the bombs being released, there was no pilot control to open the bomb bay doors. Finally we have the Mk.IF in game but can we also have the Mk.IVF please?
My best idea to incorporate the new mods as easily as possible would be to create one new aircraft and call it a Blenheim Mk.IV (F) For this new slot aircraft the gun turret should be replaced(modded by addition of the twin gun) and it should have the normal loadout options of the bomber but also add a gunpack option which would make it a fighter obviously with the gunpack it could not carry bombs and then we would have a proper Blenheim IV
edit: perhaps if someone is feeling realy adventurous they may fancy adding a late Blenheim Mk.IV with the chin turret as well? that model would be a bomber only model.
