I am looking for some information on the smoke/practise bombs used by the RAF during WW2, in particular images and construction.
I am also hoping someone can answer a question. I have details of a Lancaster carrying four of these on practise drops. However, due to modifications, only three bomb points were available in the bomb bay. Were the practise bombs (either 8.5lb, 10lb or 20lb) ever carried on 'double' carriers, that is a carrier that carried two or more bombs? I cant see any other way 4 bombs could be carried on three poins.
Thanks
