Check out this new article at RetroMechanix.com reproducing "Preparation and Employment of the Fire Bomb," a manual showing the step-by-step process of converting a drop tank into a napalm bomb for use by a Republic P-47D Thunderbolt:



This article features 22 high resolution photos showing the equipment and techniques used in preparing the bomb; candid shots of personnel; and detail shots of the bomb being mounted on the P-47D, which provide useful reference for modelers.

Hi Jared,

Do you have a PDF version of this article (I need it for my P-47 kit).  I have tried to use the link, but it doesn't work !

Would you help me Please ?

All the Best,

Marienwagen
