The Messerschmitt Me 262 Hg Iii definitely had a 1970's look. But existed only on paper, as many other designs. The exception of the fanciful ideas is the one most here know of, Horten Ho-229 which did a few testflights.
From memory - this was a 57mm cannon - it was so heavy that they had to install a counterweight in the ass end of the plane to compensate for how out of balance it make the aircraft.
@@13deadghosts You are correct. This variant was known as the Pulkzerstorer. A Mauser Mk-214 50mm cannon. The thought was to be able to destroy Allied bombers from a long range while staying at a safe distance from the tail gunners .50 Cal that was decimating German fighters.
I'd like to use the B25 in the pacific theatre to do ground strafing missions, particularly the version with the quad mount bofors in the front and the 8 other .50 cals
@@hammerofdavey Only issue is that if you could just slap a big gun on a plane then I guess the B-25G would qualify? What about the P-39 and P-63? I look at durability before calling something a tank with wings personally. So the P-47, IL-2, and A-10.
The only plane to actually use the 5cm Mauser gun in combat was a variant of the Me 410. A desperate attempt to give the fighter a way to knock out bombers from beyond the gun range of said bombers.
I watched your mod tutorial and then I installed the "project 85" mod and when I'm trying to launch the game it crashes at 70 percent. I saw the troubleshooter page that explains why it crashes and how to fix it but it says that you have to "backup" the ini files but how do I do that?
Нужно бить ведущего ведущей группы потому что это опытные летчики.и на них ориентируются остальные пилоты. Задача истребителя сорвать бомбардировку объекта . И не важно , сколько он сильно при этом
you need a mods folder, Like Mod Activator on freemodding pick what version are have, 4.12. 413, patrulla-azul.com/FreeIL2modding/forum/viewforum.php?f=17 just drop in your game then message me when you have done this
Why doesn't anyone attempt the high side approach deflection shooting taught to USN/USMC pilots before and during WWII? Big target profile, very difficult pursuit curve for gunners on the target aircraft and the ability to use speed generated in the approach dive to zoom climb up for another attack run from the opposite side?
this guy makes a very bad deflection shooting he aims too far in front of the planes + the planes are not that fast the B17 were quite slow: 462 km/h = 287 mph
@@hammerofdavey half the time I'm just setting up scenarios between the aircraft that I have until I can understand this games moding, I can get a joystick, and when I get a computer that can handle huge formations like on the video.
