Overall a good list for first release. Should cover the Battle of Britain nicely.

Yeah it does seem to cover it, but, i read here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Britain
we should have the 109E4, i had to look again when i saw the Italian aircraft, as i never heard of them being in BoB. Im not complaining, more the merrier i suppose, and that should please the Italians among us. But im puzzled why the 109E4 didnt make it

It should be included in time. As well as the E-1, E-1/B and possibly an early BoB D-1. It would be really cool if they eventually include a modified '41 map with some BF-109F variants and Spit Mk.V's.

As I know Ubisoft the 109E4 will be the first DLC for this sim

According to previous discussion on the subject i seem to remember that the only difference between an E-3 and an E-4 is the modified cannons that fire the improved rounds.
That is, an E-3 that's retrofitted with MG-FF/M cannons to fire the minengeschoss rounds is indistinguishable from a factory fresh E-4, or am i wrong?

If that's the case we already have an E-4, it just appears as a loadout option for the E-3 instead of as a separate variant. From the manual, chapter "Common Ammunition Types", top of page 59:

you need the M-shell for the Bf110C-4 and -7. They are armed with the MF-FF/M.

According to the manual, they put an early and a late 109-E variant into the game (late with propelloer-pitch-switch on the throttle). Why they didn't use the E-4 for the late (and take the FF/M from the 110) is something i really don't understand. Weird decision.
