A bit of ordnance, after all the fourth of July is just around the corner!

Oh yeah...you hit it outta the park with these babies. You gonna add partners on the starboard side???

The reference says that these "bottle rockets" are not "sidewinder" quality. It they did go off, you could never be sure where they may go. If they did fly straight, the plane would soon overtake them in flight. They were used to try to down zeppelins. Even with a target that size they were hard to hit. Ogre is definitely not an A-10 Warthog! Yes, three more for the starboard side!

Here we have Ogre. A flying weapons platform that has guns without sights. Rockets that do not shoot straight, if they ignite. Loaded onto a aero plane that was sluggish in maneuverability, had a slow rate of climb, with an initially installed interruptor cam that only allowed the Vickers gun to fire rapidly at full throttle, and an air scoop obstructing visibility and acting like a sail. Yet pilots were sucessful in downing enemy air craft and Zepplins. Take those pilots and put them in Camels and see what they could do!! But building Ogre is a blast!
