"It is farcical to think that the bomb bay on this aircraft does not have even a single fire extinguisher! It is ridiculous to put all your weapons in one basket, but not be able put out a fire in that location. I wonder which baffoon dreamt that one up?"
Just wondering what sort of fire extinguisher puts out fires in magnesium, HE or ( out of date but i can't remember the new stuff ) OTTO? No fire suppression in the bomb bay is a bit of risk analysis really. Stores jettison would be the best way of putting out the most likeley source of fire in that location, IMHO.




ps;while I have 42 posts, I would just like to clear the air by stating I never served on the 'monday-to-friday-beach-bum-squadron'
