Bristol Type 140 Balmoral
|
 |
|
This older British light bomber has seen action around the world in the service of the Empire. The Balmoral has found itself the mainstay of British colonial bomber support in Africa, Asia, and the Pacific.
The craft has two turrets. Add a forward-facing turret with guns in position 1 and 2, and with turret controls in gun position 3 and 4. Use all the normal [rear] turret rules.
Assuming that it akes no rockets (and get's a 1000 lbs discount for this), it can hold 5,500 lbs of bombs in internal bomb bays. With the bomb bays loaded, the pilot would fly as if stunned.
