This Aircraft has the capability to carry 1,750 lbs of bombs or two Mk.14 Torpedos and six Tiny Tims. while having the Designation of FB (Fighter Bomber), it is ill equipped to deal with enemy aircraft as its armament was reduced from an NR-30 30mm and two FMC T-160 20mm cannons, two a single NR-30 for mainly strafing ground targets.
