 Aren't bombs forbidden by the Ares convention as they are mostly used against non-military buildings & personel ?

								| Mex, you're smoking crack.  Bombs have been in Btech since aerotech 1. 
 I don't think there are any official rules for bomb bays.  But I do know that bombs weigh 1 ton for every 10 point bomb.

								| If you wanted, you could devote cargo space.  It would be a bomb-bay instead of cargo, but it would work. 
 Could you imagine a 55 ton fighter with 20 tons of bombs, then whatever it felt like carrying on its hard points?  F-111 anybody ?

 I hate to burst your bubble, but Stealth Armor is 'Mech-only.  No vehicles or aircraft.
