ExplosiveAircraft
ExplosiveAircraft adds high-tier bomb bays to Immersive Aircraft, giving aircraft heavier explosive payloads for aerial combat.
What it does
The mod expands Immersive Aircraft with two new tiers of Bomb Bays that can be fitted to an aircraft. Standard TNT drops from the lower tier and Strong TNT drops from the top tier. Strong TNT carries a larger blast than a regular TNT block, so the top tier suits maximum destruction, while the lower tier fits standard demolition and tactical strikes. Higher tiers are available for players who want more punch in aerial combat.
Both Architectury API and Immersive Aircraft are required, so each one must be installed beside ExplosiveAircraft. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files exist for Fabric and NeoForge, with 1.3+fabric and 1.3+neoforge as the latest builds, both for 1.21.1 and dated 2026-06-21. The code is open source under the MIT License.
