I can see the B-32 doing some AC-130 type work, without the circular flight path though. That would be a pretty damn good idea, originally I hadn't thought about the antipersonnel mission but more of anti-material and just setting the whole country on fire with the AP ammo. After dismal bombing results with general purpose bombs and the B-29, Lemay had them use fire type bombs and due to japanese structures being built of flammable woods and other products, it created hellish fire storms and burned cities to the ground. It was very efficient and many times more effective than the general purpose bombs. I really wish they would have made more of the B-32's, I've always been interested in them and would have loved to seen how they stacked up against the B-29, since they looked very equal on paper. Besides, I love the B-24, even with it's short comings and the B-32 seems to me like a much larger version of the B-24 or their single tail Navy version. Apparently they didn't figure out til late in the war that the single tail gave the B-24 much better control and I think the manufacturing was simpler if I recall, so they navy version PBY4-2 got the single tail, round cowlings due to turbo delete, not needed due to low altitude flying of the navy and other cool changes. In short, I love the Consolidated Heavies!
