Orignal build (By pancelvonat) here

Swarm version (multiple spawnable at once) here

• The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed. This is done by giving them the ability to shoot back at you >:). All bombers have a semi realistic armament with semi realistic ranges, muzzle velocities, and firing arcs.
• (Wiki)
  The Kawanishi H8K was a large, four-engine aircraft designed for long range and extended endurance on patrols or bombing missions typically flown alone over the ocean. The prototype first flew in January 1941, and H8K1s made their first combat sortie in March 1942. The robust H8K2 "Emily" flying boat was also fitted with powerful defensive armament, for which Allied pilots had substantial respect wherever this aircraft was encountered in the Pacific theater. Aircraft historian René Francillon called the H8K "the most outstanding water-based combat aircraft of the Second World War."

Notes

• This and the H6K are the first two crafts to feature an updated damage system, which seems to work a lot better than on previous bombers. For older bombers, instead of updating their FT (again), I'll be rolling out improved versions with other changes along with the gun damage after I get through a few other projects. Yey.
• I also hope the few people that have been waiting for these for so long are happy now lol

Enjoy getting obliterated!
