Default Re: French OOB06 (v.7)

I couldn't help investigating some of the aircraft in 2020 release, when I browsed an interesting Czech book with relatively detailed bomb loads, which are often hard to find (Jaroslav Schmid: Letadla 1939-45. Stíhací a bombardovací letadla Francie a Polska)

232 Potez 25 [AOP] - photo of French aircraft is 8239, like unit 387.

567 ANF Mureaux 110 (AOP) - since it has a beautiful icon, it might also serve as a bomber, with 200 kg of bombs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANF_Les_Mureaux_113 ) - from 1935/36, when Mureaux 115 appeared.

654 Bloch MB.174 - photo is Amiot 354, as below.
Bomb load is correct

655 Amiot 354 - it rather couldn't carry 20 bombs in its sleek fuselage, while it had no external hardpoints (and 50 kg is a small caliber on the other hand). It could carry 2x500 kg or 6x200 kg inside, though (max 1200 kg).

656 Amiot 143M - according to the quoted book, it could not carry 9 big bombs (100 kg in this case), however it could carry 8 bombs 100 or 200 kg (4 in hull, 4 under wings - 1600 kg in total).

BTW: "M" is in fact redundant in designation - it was only a part of full producer's designation Amiot 143 M5, meaning multiplace 5-seater - the Army used designation 143 BN5

657 Bloch MB.200 - as I've already written in Czechoslovak OOB http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=52481 , in case of 50 kg bombs, only 16 could be carried (8 in 8 single bomb bays and 8 on 4 external racks, two on each) - now 24.
It could also carry 12×100 kg (8 in bomb bays and 4 on external racks) - 1200 or 1400 in total.

658 Bloch MB.210 - I have no detailed info, apart from bigger bomb load 1600 kg , but most probably it had the same configuration as MB.200, so it could carry only half of 32 x 50 kg bombs.
It apparently could carry 8x100 kg in bomb bays and 4x200 kg on external racks.
