Aircraft/Loadouts Messerchmitt Bf 110 G-2/R1 feat. BK 3,7

[Stuka_Hunter 3,408]

Hello!
 
Today I was looking at a German tech tree, thinking what plane could be added next. I found this one: Bf 110 G-2/R1 with BK 3,7.
 
History: when the allied bombers started to penetrate deep in German air space, the need for bomber destroyer became quite serious. The solution was however easy to solve: already proven Bordkanone 3,7 was mounted on Bf 110 G-2 variant. Outcome was a capable bomber destroyer, which besides BK 3,7 could mount rockets also.
 
In-game: it could be placed between Henschel 129 B-3 and Me 410 A-1/U4. Now, I know Junkers Ju 88 P-1 and P-4 are planned, BUT here is why Bf 110 G-2/R1 should be preferred over Ju 88 Ps: it is faster (about 100 km faster) and has better armament (Ju 88 P only has BK 3,7 and gunners, while Bf 110 G-2/R1 has 2 MG/FF, 4 MG 17, 1 BK 3,7 and rear gunner).

Open for discussion.  :salute:

[GuiRitter 694]

I support!

[Z3r0_ 4,128]

So much firepower...I want it!

[Heinkel280 641]

How many rounds could the 37 carry? I'm sure with the addition of the Bf 110G-2 it will come with the ability to mount the 37 but +1 either way.

That will heavily depend on where G-2 is placed. Edited May 18, 2015 by Stuka_Hunter

We do need more 110s, it was an important plane yet seldom seen.

You have my support for that very reason.

[Indo_Pilot 80]

+1
Need more Eisenseiten

[wotertool 5,062]

I am all for it!

[Z3r0_ 4,128]

I'd add another option to the poll tbh, as honestly it would probably be more convenient to just have this as an unlockable armament loadout for a regular Bf-110G-2.

[KillaKiwi 5,478]

72 rounds

 

do you have a souce for that? as far as I know the BK 3,7 could only be feed with a 12 round magazine. I would really like to have 72 rounds on the hs 129 however every source states it only had 12 shots for the BK 3,7.

 

after some digging around: ok so it was loaded inside the of the aircraft with clips so it could have more than just 12 rounds. nito

[LM002 987]

I am for the addition of any Bf-110 variant/s into this game, so +1 from me!

[Fifty_Calories 619]

Need the Mk 108 versions aswell.
