Sadly Pope you're wrong. Bezhumniy is 100% correct, the 51D does have 2x1000lbs- certainly on the PS3 anyway.

Ouch, cutting.
Is that just for destroying targets then in Strike?

Pray tell in what way is that cutting? I just pointed out to Pope that Bez was correct in that certainly with regard to the 51D on PS3 it has the option (once unlocked) to equip it with 2x1000lbs bombs. Just as you can also equip it with rockets. As for using it, do as you please. As bombs are really only useful in strike to do damage it would seem sensible to use it but if carrying around 2000lbs in a dogfight is your bag them knock yourself out. Better to equip it with rockets when idiots use B17s in DFs, TBs and CTAs though as it's a great BnZ especially against such a big target.

I've also got 2 x 1000lb bombs as a weapons choice for my P51-D5 on the PS3. They're pretty awesome for CTA games but to be honest I normally use the little 153 for fun.

Sadly Pope you're wrong. was a little blunt and I viewed it as quite upfront and abrupt so to me it seemed a little harsh.

This is crazy. Ive been here since the demo launch and NOBODY has ever said anything about these 1000lb bombs for the P-51D. I have 1000/1000 on xbox and don't have them. How did you unlock them? 2x250lb bombs on the xbox is 50 targets destroyed. Sorry if I am wrong but this is totaly out of the blue. They were never on any unlock list here. Were they added with the PS3 patch? and why?
