Understand Aircraft Compatibility and Bomb Bay Placement
Which Aircraft Support Bomb Bays
Not all Immersive Aircraft planes are equally suited for nuclear bomb bays. Larger aircraft like bombers and transport planes have more upgrade slots and structural capacity. Smaller planes like fighters or light aircraft may have limited or no compatible upgrade slots.
Checking Upgrade Slots
When you open an aircraft's upgrade interface, you'll see available slots. The
Nuclear Bomb Bay requires a compatible slot—usually designated for cargo or weapons upgrades. If your aircraft shows no suitable slots, it cannot equip this upgrade.
Balancing with Datapacks
The mod includes an optional datapack that rebalances bomb capacity across different aircraft sizes. This prevents overpowered combinations where massive planes could carry unrealistic bomb loads. If you're playing with this datapack enabled, your aircraft's actual bomb capacity may differ from the bay's maximum slots.
Always verify your specific aircraft model's upgrade compatibility before gathering materials to craft a bomb bay.
