109 slots

Hello

I would like to know if I overlooked something, or Bf109 will not have slots?
If this is true, it means a big mistake

Thanks

Your suggestion is inconceivable in a state-of-art simulation like CoD. I rather think we still don't have any screenshot of a slow-flying 109 with extended slots.

Look at the shape of the leading edge of the wing, in the attached image. You can see a discontinuity in the pixels, I think that slot is clearly retracted.

Well, we have screenshots of 109's sitting on the airfield, with retracted slats.

I wondered about this aswell, but i'm convinced that they won't release CloD without slats on the 109 and 110, that would be very weird.

Sorry to be picky but it should be slats not slots

You've really got a point here. If this image from year 2005 is for real, the 109 has slats. The retracted position when sitting on the airfield can be a bug.

Please, we need a picture of an Emil with her highly addictive slats wide open!
