Japan To-do:

[edit] Only one with 2 x 250 Kg?

Article says:

Although the B7A had a weight carrying capacity apparently resulting in a weapons load no greater than its predecessors, in fact the presence of an internal bomb bay with two high-load-capability attachment points allowed the aircraft to carry two 250 kg bombs, something no other Japanese single engine fighter or attack aircraft could do (other aircraft had only a single heavy-load attachment point, and there was no known example of an external rack to adapt a single attachment point to multiple heavy bombs).

Article about B5N (2 generations older) says it could carry as much as 3 250Kg bombs. Japanese fighters of the time or older like Ki-43, Ki-84, N1K also carried 2x250Kg. Maybe article meant to say B7A could carry 2 250Kg internally?

BTW, also suspicious the 1941 prototype (earlier than B6N?) and 1941-1944 production period. 89.129.183.6 21:21, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
