    @McChezborger I have an idea for an attack aircraft, but might not be able to have the speed or bomb load requirements because it’s a dive bomber

    I think most fighters in the 1930’s usually had 4 MGs, especially German and Japanese ones, so could the MG requirements be loosened for builds like that?
