CFS2 Weapons Pack- Seismic Bombs.
By John P Fortin (Blood_Hawk23)
Here are two WWII Deep Penetration Bombs. The "Tallboy" Bomb, Medium Capacity, 12,000 lb, and the "Grand Slam" Bomb, Medium Capacity, 22,000 lb. They were called Seismic or "Earthquake" Bombs. As their intended use was to destroy targets by penetrating the ground and causing a seismic shock wave.
The "Tallboy" was 6.35 meters (21 feet) Long and weighed 5,443 kgs (12,000 lbs). The "Grand Slam" was 1.73 meters longer for a total of 8.08 meters (26.5 feet) and weighed 9,979 kgs (22,000 lbs). It was the largest conventional bomb dropped during World War II.
Only two aircraft ever carried the "Tallboy" or the "Grand Slam". They were the Avro Lancaster and Boeing B-29 Superfortress. The only other aircraft ever capable of carring the "Tallboy" was the Convair B-36 Peacemaker.
Some U.S. versions of the "Tallboy" called the T-10, later re-designated the M-121, were dropped during the Korean War and Vietnam.
The scale of each model is correct. As is the weight in the DPs. These are Multi-LOD models.
