"Me 262A-1/U4 ("Pulkzerstörer") was fitted with an awesome Mauser MK214 Cannon in its nose. Two Me 262s were modified to carry this weapon - wk/nrs 111899 and 1700083 - and tested at Lager-Lechfeld in March/April 1945"

BK5-50mm is dif than mk214 over 300 bk5 were produce before wars end. most were mounted to ME410's 10 were fitted to 262's. 7 were found at wars end 3 were destroyed on landings. 1946 these were brought to america thru OPERATION LUSTY. ! or more of every type of plane germans had during war operational or not was brought to USA. (9 me 262's were taking to USA and even 1 german mosquito was included)

Bah. The Me262 with the BK50 was tested in combat and judged a failure and so was not proceeded with.

What we need is the Mosquito FB.Mk XVIII with the 57mm Mollins gun.

You should all listen to Karnak, for he is very wise!
