TT33a, there are 2 reports here, 1 for side MG 15 and 1 for nose cannon.  

In nearly all cases best to post separate reports.

 

As to the 20mm optoin, in doing to the use of bomb sight is removed.

There is no room for both devices (thus some images showing bomb sight window covered).

 

On the MG131 update, that is for much later 88's  New aircraft.

 

Will file report soon(tm)

 

(PS on Do17z cannon, its coming)

Yes but the dive bombing sight would not be impacted:

True, but then the 20mm would be useless IRL.

 

I know, is a silly game it would be OK, and game does not fully model that type of sight.

[Pony51 6,572]

I looked all over, but cannot find how much 20mm rounds it carried.

It says for 20mm rounds "siehe Beladevorschrift ", "see loading instructions", but cannot find where that is.

Pony are you feeling ok? Sleeping well? It says right up there next to the big red arrow.....120 rounds in 2 trommeln

If its a MG-FF/M then its 60, and if im not misreading it, doesnt the second image say 120 rounds? Im assuming that to mean 2 spare reloads + 1 already loaded but it could be 1 loaded + 1 spare

yeah, way too much going on for me in RL.  I was "target fixated" on the manual, did not notice the catalog listing until after I posted.  (DOH!).

Still, I prefer a manual, but will take the catalog.

Hoping for more.
