how about adding this to 262 loadout?

[Bombardy]

as stated in the ultimate authority on all things, these rockets were used on 262's (and I think they are already an option on our FW190-F8) and could be an easy modification to do and still create something new and interseting for buff hunting jets.

hell, I know I hate making passes on B24's at any angle in a 262, the thing is like a walking "pilot wound" machine


here the link:

Wikipedia link to anti-aircraft rockets mounted on 262's

seems they could be quite successful if fired at about 600m -

woo hoo!!!

[Target2]

Might want to check that link.

[Krusty]

I think he's talking about R4M rockets. You could carry 24 of them (2 boxes, 1 under each wing) and they decimated bombers horribly, when used. I think they had a range greater than 600, though.

[Bombardy]

YES the R4M rockets are the ones I am talkig about and they were certianly were not unusual or obscure field mod



here's the link, sorry about the first link I posted, it was totally wrong

Wikipedia link on R4M rockets for 262

according to the data on wikipedia, they were designed effective to about 100 meters but actually 600meters turnd out to be the range in real life to obtain decent results

A battery typically consisted of two groups of 12 rockets, and when all 24 were fired at once they would fill an area about 15 by 30 m at 1000 m, dense enough that one was almost certain to hit its target.

Why they are only for a perk aircraft anyway. If your willing to spend perks for the plane why not with air to air ords as well. We already have air to air on 110 , and 190 whats the big diff?

why?

[SAS_KID]

well it would devastate the LCA in their buff's i meen can you imagine the 475th launching a flight against them jesus like 10 kills a pop and then i won't even get that single bomber left over:cry  but it would be nice:aok  firing them into a furball:lol

[RAIDER14]

people would also use themm for air to air which makes this a bad idea

Dude are you thick , that's what they are suppose to do.
I have an idea for you pick up a book.

then we might as well add sabre jets and Migs

[Bronk]

Why, there were no sabre and mig 15s in ww2 . But there were 262s equipped with this air to air system. Rare yes ,but it's already perked. And like i also said we have air to air rockets now. As far as rare goes La7 with the 3 cannon is about as rare as it gets. Not to  mention the Ta 152 numbers .

make the me 262 with missile loadout twice or 3 times the amount of perks needed for a regular 262:aok

[Bronk]

Raider they are not MISSELS they are however UNGUIDED ROCKETS. Huge difference. No need for a bigger perk only good for 1 shot . Did you even read the link. So you want to perk the 110 when it carries it's air to air rockets also?
