EDBTR Database Project 10-10-13

This is the first version release of an ongoing project to improve the EDBTR database. There may be other version releases by different members- each with their own interpretations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

version 10-10-13:

- Changed A-20G, A-26B Invader, B-25J Mitchell, and Mitchell III designations from 'Level Bomber' to 'Fighter Bomber', as they were primarily designed as low-level ground attack aircraft. These aircraft will now be able to strafe ground targets with their guns as well as do low-level bombing.

- Removed the four FF 20mm cannons on the A-20G Havoc. Starting with the G-5 model, the 20mm cannons were replaced in favor of the more reliable .50 MG.

- Changed artwork for B-25J Mitchell and Mitchell III to now represent solid-nose configurations the ground attack versions had.

- Bf 109G-6/R6 now upgrades to Bf 109G-14

- Bf 109T-2 now upgrades to Bf 109G-5

- Fw 190A-6/R1 now upgrades to Fw 190A-8

- Me 410A-1/U2 now upgrades to Me 410B-2/U2

- Bf 109G-6/U4N now upgrades to Bf 109G-14

- Fw 190A-5/U2 now upgrades to Fw 190A-8

One feature of this mod changes the A-20G, A-26B Invader, B-25J Mitchell, and Mitchell III light level bombers into ground attack bombers, as they were historically. These changes allow them to do low-level bombing missions, as well as ground strafings and fighter sweeps. Their durability plus heavy firepower nose configurations make them quite deadly ground attack aircraft. But they must have proper fighter escorts or they will become easy prey for interceptors.
