Default Question (Concerns) with 4.13 and older 4.12 features (bomb loadouts)

Questions and Concerns with 4.13 and older 4.12 features (bomb loadouts)

The Razon Guided Bomb.
Can this bomb be added to the flyable B24 in-game?
Currently, I'm not sure how to implement this aside from "dumb bomb" level bombing for the AI B24.

But having the Razon on the flyable B24 would be awesome for Bridge busting missions.


More Importantly:

The Bat Bomb (SWOD Mark 9)
From the 4.12 readme:
"After being dropped it glided toward the target on a preset course using a gyro-stabilizer system to keep it on track."

However, when equipping this bomb to AI flown F4U-4 Corsair, they dive bomb.
There's no way to get AI F4U-4 Corsair planes to deploy this bomb correctly.

I will say that this feature IL2 really got right. Not even sure how they did it. If you equip the Bat Bomb to an AI B24, make sure Army is Red AND you select US Navy; otherwise it is unavailable. Set date => 1946 for coops.

From an altitude of about 5000 meters, and a distance of around 10km, just put the Ground Attack Waypoint. There's no need to select a target (unless you want to). Works great.

Just would love this option on the Human Flyable B24 and a way to get the Corsair to deliver properly.
