Add a couple of dispensers and hoppers to Zeppelins Back

Now that Zeps have both AA guns and bomb bays adding them doesn't make to much of a difference in fire power. Putting fire charges in them is basically useless compared to to AA guns. And while you could put them on the bottom and drop tnt 1 its expensive gun powder wise and for a craft that can be so easily shot down very much not worth it. 2 you can already get the same results by placing tnt on any redstone source and letting it fall. (If this is some how illegal and ive missed it then putting tnt in the dispensers and dropping it is also illegal same level of enforcement required.)

That aside the reason I want them is not combat related.

Having a couple of them would allow us to add some fun features to our zeppelins. Namely

1. armor equiper just fun to have and at the moment the only craft you can really put one on at the moment is a truck

2. sf machines with a few despensors you can have some of the basic sf machines on your craft a have a little work shop(For anyone worrying that a portable work shop would be op in some way you could just carry the items and place them where you need them this is just for the cool factor)

Dispensers would also make it possible to make powerful TNT cannons on zeppelins, which is problematic

I have an existing tnt cannon that fits on a heavy tank and has a range of 2000 blocks. There is no good reason to put on a zep

the tank is harder to destroy smaller and cheaper

while you could then put it on a zep why? Tnt cannons of that level of power have range to the point where it doesn't matter what you put it on a zep is by far the easyest to take out

you could also keep the limit pretty low with only like 4-6 dispensors its pretty hard to make a good cannon

6 you can make some spray cannons but for a zep there useless be cause the tnt can't fall far enough

Problem with tnt cannons on a zep is it either has enough speed to reach target on the ground and at that speed 1 the tnt director doesn't work on it meaning long range is its only use case(and it would therefore be better to just build the cannon in wilderness can't be seen on /craftlist then and you could make it more powerfull because theres no dispensor limit.) 2. its slow enough that you can aim it. In this case it can fall max about 70 blocks ive tryed with slime block based ones it is very hard to hit anything with it the 4 bomb bays you can now have are way better.
