NOTES & VARIANTS

B5N2 Model 12: Station 1 may carry oneType 91 torpedo, one bomb of up to1,800 lbs. or a bomb rack for up to six 135lb. or up to three 550 lb. bombs. On rareoccasions a drop tank was fitted for ad-ditional range (use Zero tank data).

Endurance: Maximum is 560 for long-range missions (all wing tanks used).Normal = 280 (half the wing tanks used). If end. ≤ 280, fuel protection = +0.

B5N1 Model 11: February 1938 model with 840 HP Hikare 3 engine. Reduce LOand ML level speeds by 0.5. Reduce all ROC nos. by 300. Delete emergencypower. Ceilings = 24,000 / 19,400 / 13,800 Feet. All else as B5N2.
