 The Junkers Ju-52 carried a maximum bomb load of 1000 lbs, which is probably a big reason (along with it's slow speed) it didn't see much use as a bomber.

 I mean no disrespect to those who died in these raids but comparing it to Hiroshima or stating that raids like the March 9 1945 raid are less well known. (Tokyo was more heavily damaged by that raid than Hiroshima.)  "
