1st picture shows mounting for PD 8.8 (I, two mounting styles), Panzerblitz (II), and Panzershreck (III). Note that PD 8.8 and Panzershreck launchers could be mounted on the standard ETC-50 racks, but Panzerblitz requires a different wing configuration.

This is the PD 8.8 launcher. Looks like mockup missiles though. Again note that launcher mounts to standard ETC-50 rack.

Of course, the thing to note about the R-B R4/M installations is that they weren't fired singly, but were fired all at once and formed a 'box/square' pattern in flight to increase the probability of striking the bomber. Which would be cool to have in AH

Sunny one of my books (I forgot which) says the Panzerblitz could be fired in pairs or all at once. I don't know about R4/M. Notice the launchers are different. 8 rockets for R4/M, 6 rockets for Pb.

Yepp Funked

the PD8.8 is cool but they have many Problems w it.
same Problems was w PB1
The Plane must go under (i think) 375KmH to launch the Rockets. At this time the Jabo was very vunurable (is this right??) against enm fighters.
The PB2 can launch at higher Speeds.

The Bombload from the FW 190 F-8 in AH is not right too
they can carry 1x 1000 kg egg, but it was not used much.

Most loadout was 1x500kg and 2x250Kg under wings
or
1x500Kg and 8x50kg or 70Kg eggs

I read that the most common version was the Fw 190F-8/R1 we have in AH, with ETC 50 or ETC 71 bomb racks on the wings. This version could not carry 250 kg bombs on the wings.

To carry 250 kg bombs (or 300 l fuel tanks) on the wings, the ETC 503 rack was used, and the aircraft was designated Fw 190F-8/U1. To change from ETC 50 to ETC 503 required some serious surgery, and it wasn't something you could do in the field.

One Question??
What 262 we have in AH? is this the A1?

When we have the 262-A1 then i must say "Pyro plaese get the R4/M on this Plane too"

The 262 A-1 was Flying w 24 R4/m Rockets per Wing.

At one Time, the JV44 attacked a large Bomber Group (425 B17), after the Attack, 25 B17 was shot down and without any looses on the german side.

Think thats a great Weapon for me

We have Me 262A-1a with no R4/M. A-1b has R4/M.

R4/M would be a fun loadout option.

damn. damn, damn

That was not the answer i will hear

When u need infos from Ruhrstahl/Kramer X-4 Missile, here i get a good side in English w all technical informations about this weapon

http://users.visi.net/~djohnson/missile/x-4.html

but there are some missinformations (wrond datas) on the site. The FW-A8 is a FW190-F8/V69 (582072) or V70 (580229). According to my informations there were also three produktion F8-Planes with the RK X-4: 583431, 583438 and 584221
