just for some rides IE instead of having the F4U-IC the D will have an option for the 4x20mms which will be a perk option.. As far as i know thats what HTC was talking about when he mentioned perk ord.. Basically certain gun packages will be perked.. Not bombs and rockets.

Although it leaves the way open to perk certain bombs, like maybe a 4k cookie on the mossie, or the 1800kg egg on the Ju87 or something (hypothetically)

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

personally I don't see a reason. Why use that when a 1k bomb would be more effective? :P

some spitfires carried 4x 20mm cannons and Fw 190s (A-8) carried 6x 20mm cannons:eek:  I wonder if we will have these for "perk ordinance"

The spits rarely ever used 4x20mm. Most ferried with 4x 20mm had 2x removed upon arrival.

Also, the 190A-8 with the 2x20mm pack under each wing was supposedly slowed down and weighed down awfully by it. It might be the case that the performance loss itself is the penalty for taking this option (should we ever get it). If not I hope the perk isn't too high. I've been waiting for that one for a while now! :)

Hello Mr Bias.


Bronk

Edit: Should add to  this so not to appear as FLAME.

Krusty why do you think most 4x 20mm spits had 2 removed hmmm?
I'll tell you PERFORMANCE LOSS.
So what's good for spit tards would be good for luftwobbles.

Bronk: If no spits USED the 4x20mm in combat, why would you add it? Yes they removed them for performance reasons, but also because they felt "2 were good enough". The 190s took the other route, piling more guns and more ammo onto the frame as much as it could carry. Sometimes they put bombs on it so large the tail wheel couldn't touch the ground.

Totally different philosophy between the two nations here. Not bias. Just how it was.

Most/Rarely is the key words. This implies some had quad 20mm.

What they just had 4x birds for show and didn't use them?

I know they just parked them on the field and oooohed and ahhhed over them.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

don't be a twit, bronk. You've read the threads with the arguments (from years and years past). I know you have. You know that the folks on these forums that know all about spitfires have said the same things I've just said. So go argue with them. You probably won't win.


On the subject at hand, if I recall the small handful of spitMkV that had 4x20mm were only used as ground attack, a role at which the hurricane IIC was better suited so it was given the task instead.

if we take a few moments to ignore bronk's ever lasting war on krusty....


.....4x20mm spits should not be introduced because they would be the only thing ever flown and far too powerfull for the whiners to handle.


i would love it if they did though.

So it would be like the Mk XIV. Used but why take it when XVIs are free.
