No one else seems to have mentioned this, so I wonder, but I'm at a loss so I put it forward, and it seems like more than a minor detail. Playing the game, I noticed I saw no muzzle flashes for the Prop-hub mounted 20mm on the 109s. So I checked in the FMB and sure enough, in my install there is no weapon configuration for either model of the 109 that includes the prop-mounted 20mm.
Having done some reading, it looks like early models of the 109 did not have the prop 20mm, and that the earliest models were only armed with 2 cowl-mounted mgs, the wing-mounted 20mm cannon being introduced later as a response to the Spit's and Hurricane's 8mg armament.
Why then do the 109s have the cannon modeled on the aircraft? Did these models have the provision for the 20mm but didn't include it?
Confused.
And anyway, why don't I have the option of adding the 20mm in the FMB if the cannon is modeled on the plane?
Still confused.
