"Black 4" (ME262) 2./JG7

[Motherland]

there wer different variants of Me 262's with pods that could hold ordanace under the belly (not the wings) and that is probably what you are looking at thats confusing you Mother.

Yes, I know. The variant you described is the Me-262-2a. This had two 'viking ship' ordnance pylons under the nose. What I was talking about, was that the 2a had the two lower Mk108s removed. As we went over, however, is that though the cannons were removed the opening for the barrel and the ejection port remained.

AWwrgwy ...I like your avatar. "What's with all the negative waves"..lol

This paint scheme is on hold due to the new 262 model we are getting.

As far as the bomb racks go, ALL A1-a's had attach points. Whether or not the racks were fitted depended on the circumstance.

It was Willy Messerschmitt that marketed the 262 as a multi-role fighter to the RLM. His promises that the machine could do both bombing and fighter missions was a key factor in it's acceptance. He also swayed Hitler with those same arguments. The 262 was designed from the get-go with attach points for bomb racks.
A special high speed bomb sighting system was also being developed for it. Delay in development of this sight hampered the use of the 262 as a bomber.

Kommando Schenk used many A-1a's in the bomber role. I believe these were machines from EkDo 262 which used them as fighters for the most part.
The A-1a's can usually be picked out as the ones with all the cannons and the bomb racks. The A-2's were usually missing a couple guns.

It's the best 3D picture I can find. Kinda small though.
