[PEA] Petlyakov Pe-8 "Bombit"
Part Efficient Aircrafts!
Everyone's favorite sauce of friendly fire, the Pe-8 and his FAB-5000!
Not much, just the usual PEA stuff. I'll give you this much though; The Pe-8 didn't have an official nickname, that is, aside from "Petlyakov," so I decided to give it the name "Bombit," which is literally just "bomb" in Russian. True, the Pe-8 isn't the bomb, but considering how infamous its 11,000 pound bomb is, I think it's quite fitting lol
PEA Lore:
The Pe-8's best friend is the IL-2. Together, they make life miserable for any enemy ground forces, if they even live long enough to see the two planes. However, they're also quite the troublemakers. For instance(s), the Pe-8 and IL-2 decided to attempt to participate in the Battle of D-Day, but were nearly shot down by both the Axis and the Allies because they didn't have invasion stripes, but were flying low so no one noticed they weren't German. One of the P-51s actually said "I thought that was Renzan or something." Another time they stole the breakfast of several Soviet officers, almost starting World War 2.5. Another time, they raided a Tupolev warehouse (because not even other Soviet planes like Tupolev :v) and prevented the canon event that is the Tu-4, but because they didn't want a universal collapse they just fabricated a Tu-4- and by "fabricated," I mean they built it out literal fabric (lol). This is the reason why the PEAverse has a Tu-4, but why it's actually decent in comparison to the B-29 is still a mystery. Regardless, the two are, in spite of everything, still alive and treating Tupolev like an absolute joke to this day. Their current favorite Tu-X to mess with would be the Tu-160.

@TheUltimatePlaneLover lol
@Leporad2
The profile picture kinda gave it away lol
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I am working on da MIGHTY T-90
@Leporad2
Yes, 'tis name is Bombit
@TheUltimatePlaneLover behold THE MIGHTY BOMBIT
@Leporad2 Yes,
"Bombit"
Ah yes "BOMBIT"
@KPLBall possibly
@TheUltimatePlaneLover can you make a PEA P-43?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover np!
@IDK0
Probably. The Pe-8 and IL-2 honestly didn't like the Soviet Union, hence why he (tried to) join the battle of D-Day).
Also thanks :D
@TheUltimatePlaneLover also congrats on 40k!
@TheUltimatePlaneLover will the Pe-8 show up if I theoretically attack any major Soviet port city?
@IDK0 However if you wanna down literally any other Soviet bomber, go ahead
@TheUltimatePlaneLover oh. I better call off the landings then…
@IDK0 The Pe-8 is the only Soviet bomber I don't want destroyed. If you do that... I'll probably do nothing, but the rest of the Soviet Air Force will, namely the MASSIVE amounts of IL-2s.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I will remove this beauty from the skies. It’s too big for my Fireball’s liking
That picture after the pea lore........I know what it is buuuuut, it gave me funny ideas for a second ;)
@CrestelAeronautics More than likely one of the Lavochkins, I like their chunky design, my predicament is that I don't know the difference between them ;-;
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
Nice
@CrestelAeronautics
Probably the LaGG-3, I-16, or La-5/7/9.
@TemporaryReplacement lol we do a little trollin
@TheMouse That's the idea, the Pe-8 is such a menace that the sky goes dark when it's preparing to attack
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
Next:
A Soviet WW-2 fighter
Any one of them
I can almost hear the inner CoD lobby coming out from players after being teamkilled by this…
