How many bombs could a German bomber hold?
There were bombs of many sizes, from 20 pound fragmentation bombs up through ten ton blockbusters (the origin of the term). Obviously the smaller the bomb the more that could be carried to the target. Also depending on the length of the trip to the target, the bomb load might have to be cut back so maximum fuel could be carried, or for closer targets less fuel and more bombs could be loaded. The usual bombs dropped by American bombers over Europe were 500 pound high explosive bombs. The US had three types of four engine, heavy bombers: B-17, B-24 and B-29. The B-29 was used exclusively in the Pacific. On a short mission the B-17 could carry sixteen 500 pound bombs, on a long mission, nine. The usual load was ten, or 5,000 pounds ( 2 1/2 tons). The B-24 could usually carry about twelve 500 pound bombs. The B-29, used only against Japan in WWII, was the biggest bomber of the war. Its standard bomb load was 20,000 pounds, or 40 500 pound bombs. Bombing in the Pacific was different from over Europe though. There are very high winds over the Pacific, which scatter the bombs if they are dropped from the usual 5-6 miles up. And Japanese industry was dispersed into homes, actual cottage industry. These factors prompted a switch to incendiary (fire) bombing. The incendiary bombs, dropped in bundles which opened up in mid air, weighed twenty pounds. A single one on the roof could burn down a house, and each bomber could carry about one thousand of them. The US also operated two engine medium bombers, the B-25 and the B-26, which had shorter range and could carry less bombs.
