JU87G
« on: March 28, 2008, 11:41:35 AM »
Since we have so many wonderful gv's, wouldn't it be great to have another aircraft to shoot them with? :D  As it is, the LW lacks an aircraft with AP rounds, which will not do for any future eastern front scenarios.

I actually haven't flown the Stuka since I got an invalid component 0 after almost killing 5 panzers with a single bomb drop...

I almost killed a panzer once.  In fact, on that same flight I very nearly shot down an aircraft, too!

I've made someone auger on at least one occasion trying to get my Stuka. Hans-Ulrich Rudel did, too. Along with his battleship kill and multiple destroyers... hundreds of Soviet tanks.... that guy was insane.

Vulched the crap out of some Rookies the other day in the Ju-87D-3.  Got 6 kills, one of them was on the re-arm pad.  Great times.

Shure they are 37mm tungsten shells but there are only 6 per gun I dont think it would be too practical since the G-2 did not have the capability of carrying a bomb. Shure it would be cool to get a new variant, but i dont see it affecting the game too much, Ide rather have HTC work on completly new planes instead of more variants. Mabey like the He219 uhu.

6 rounds of 37mm is enough for 6 tanks. Currently the most you can bag with a Stuka is 3 unless you get lucky or rearm.

 Wouldn't you rather have the ME410, with Mk103 30mm ap rounds.

Bombing planes?  Maybe that's the toolshedder's way of vulching.  I got mine the old fashion way, with the machine guns.

Both the Ju-87G-1 and G-2 were able to carry bombs.  The 37mm Flak 18 gun pods could be removed and bomb racks installed if the mission called for it.

Why not both?

The Ju 87 G2 could be added as a in- hangar gun option because IIRC the G2 was a modified version of the Stuka we have now.

I'd like to see it remodelled properly, of course, but it could be an easy addition.
