No no, the thing that is wrong is the right canopy frame... which obstructs the forward view by a lot of margin...

IRL the gunsight view wasn't obstructed at all, look at the 2nd picture, and see as the face of the pilot and the gunsight are in a totally natural position... no canopy bar is obscuring the view from the inside.

The C.202 cockpit have been made wrong from the beginning... while the C.205 cockpit and canopy frames are close to reality...

Look at those pics.



The canopy frame obscures a large part of the gunsight view.



This is the cockpit of the C.205, which was basically the same airplane with a different engine

Look how the canopy bar isn't obstructing the gunsight view, as in the black and white picture ,taken from ahead of the canopy, shows..

So, not only the C.202 has porked guns, but porked gunsight view too...
