Ah yes, now I remember. It was always that one German plane I wanted to see flyable in the IL-2 series. Glad to see TD doing such a great job with making this plane flyable.
Anyways, I checked my resources. In Denes Bernad's book on the Hs 129 (one of the
Military Aircraft in Detail series books) are the only two known pics of an Hs 129 B-3. The aircraft in question (W.Nr. 162052) was abandoned in the area south of Koenigsberg in the winter of 44-45. However, there is no sign that the aircraft was fitted with a telescopic gunsight.
EDIT: I forgot to add that I think there are some references to using the telescopic gunsight in Martin Pegg's book on the Hs 129. I'll look it up and see when I get the chance.
