I would settle for the addition of MG151/20's in our D-3. The JU87 D-8 (which has the identical airframe/wings of our current D-3) had them.

The Ju 87D-8 was built off the D-5 air frame, not the D-3.  It's easy to tell by the wings.

(Dont say it wont transform it into a decent dogfighter Mr. Ack because I kill many a plane in SBD's)  

It won't.  Sorry to burst your bubble.

In any case, there were definitely MG151 equipped Stukas with the same airframe and wing shape as our current model.

Maybe not for you, but we had a snapshot frame 2 in SEA that pitted Val's vs Stukas in pure dogfighting, just for fun. Stukas were able to best the Vals in at least 50% of the turnfights.
Kermit was there, many other vet pilots. Sure it's not a vert fighter like the pee38, I'm not saying that it is. It is slow, sure, but so are the Brews and SBD's, ect.
Point is, a good stuka pilot will have much, much better chances to get air2air kills and RTB with the 20mil's added.
(ps, there is quite a few Luft pilots that take them up to dogfight in MA just for fun)  :aok

The Kanonenvogel had 6 rounds per pod, this is not even close to being open for debate.

There isn't a 1000 foot  altitude requirement to arm bombs, the bombs have to travel a certain amount of feet before they are armed and that travel could be in either the vertical or horizontal plane.

HT,

So, after you guys get finished with the interior redesign of the Stuka. Can we get the 37mms after that?

I know this question gets asked alot but.........Can we please just get a quick and dirty answer on the why or why not about this particular load out or plane addition?  This thread and many others about the 87 with the 37mm load out have been around for along time and we get nothing but silence from HTC.  Please just a quick thought from dale!
