Prompt and $\beta$-delayed fission observables, such as the average number of prompt and delayed neutrons, the independent and cumulative fission product yields, and the prompt $\gamma$-ray energy spectra for the photonuclear reactions on $^{235,238}$U and $^{239}$Pu are calculated with the Hauser-Feshbach Fission Fragment Decay (HF$^3$D) model and compared with available experimental data. In the analysis of neutron-induced fission reactions to the case of photo-induced fission, an excellent reproduction of the delayed neutron yields supports a traditional assumption that the photo-fission might be similar to the neutron-induced fission at the same excitation energies regardless of the spin and parity of the fissioning systems.
