Other armament corrections

[jameson]

Thor,
I have a book called "Fighter" byWerner Held which has 3 pictures of Bf110G-2's of 6 and 7/ZG 76 that are armed with two rocket tubes under each wing. One picture captioned, "Bf 110G-2's....form up to attack the bombers, early 1944"
There is a picture and more info here:
http://www.ww2.dk/air/zerstorer/zg76.htm
and here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zerst%C...rgeschwader_76
where it gives dates for two daylight attacks on bombers, presumably armed with rockets. Both 6&7/ZG 76 were defence of the reich units.

check M5 armament of the ingame Bf110G-2.

Er, true, but one source I have seen said that the Panzerblitz 1 was based upon the WrfGr.21, but given that it didn't come into existence until late '44, both you and Thor are correct, and it's very unlikely any version of the 110 ever saw action with this weapon. (More humble pie!).

Another one that seems to be a mistake of old is the dorsal turret armament of the Il-4.
On the model it is portrayed and indeed should be a 12.7mm UBT.
However the in-game weapon seems to be a 7.62mm ShKAS.

Also does anyone know why the ventral positions on the DB-3F and Il-4 have the ShKAS guns just hanging out in the air like that?

I for one would like to have a pair of 20mms instead of 30mms in the upper nose of the BF-110.
...and then add the belly pack to that, the Droptanks, the Wurfgranaten...

Those 30.mms just do not cut it for me

Already has 20mm MG151/20s for most sets, including default.

[JG53Frankyboy]

Yes, but there was a Rüstsatz available thatcreplaced thecMG17 with two MG151/20. So it had 4 20mm canons in nose. Would need some 3D work for the barrels.

i read what USSR received some old Hurricanes IID from africa, flyable, but in bad condition, plus several Mark IV, so, even if soviet 2d and 4 was not used in combats, although 441 IAP PVO had these aircrafts (several sorties to interception) and 246 IAP with >30 IID arrived at the front in june-july'44, anyway, it's additional reason for including these planes with correct performances...
