Reason why the chewbacca gun was never invented.

Another turret view with control of the aircraft. You have control while in the F6 why not just add that to the second position in the 234. Seems like it would be easy enough. Code would have to be changed anyway just to add another position. No reason you couldnt disable Autopilot or change it in a way that would be more representative of a pilot looking through a periscope.

It wouldnt be perfect but better than what we have now. I use the F3 positon and look back pull trigger spray and pray.

the 20mms on the arado arent dead weight, they can actually give u 10mph speed boost. its pretty cool if u need alittle extra power to dive away from somone:noid

The bomb sight was not used to aim the rear guns.

The periscope could be rotated 180 to face forward. When in that position it was used as a 'bomb sight' for glide bomb attacks (shallow dives from altitude). If you can't comprehend that then just stop posting.

The rearward firing 2cm were almost never fitted and were completely useless, periscope or no periscope. They are as equally useless in AH. However, having the periscope modeled so that it could be used as a 'glide bomb sight' would be much more 'useful' for high speed, higher altitude bomb attacks. In real life the 234, as a bomber, didn't achieve much. It was a a recce aircraft that it proved its worth.
