Ooh... just thought of a good one.

Yank whatever it is that makes the 190A8 so pig-dog heavy to turn (added armor?  optional package?) out of it.

I would put the Sabre engine in the Hellcat and take the 50's out and put hispanos in the wings...don't know if it would fly without tons of other mods but this is fantasy world so whatever... :)

That reminds me of another one I've often wished for.  Bf109-K4, with 12mm guns, ammo and mounts removed.

Some great ones already! Lots of armament mods which is interesting. Some great engine refit ideas too.

Just for kicks and giggles, take the Tu2's loadout of 88 submachine guns and use that concept in a plane with a larger bomb bay like the lanc.

I also vuagely remember reading in a book about a PT boat crew that took the turret off of a tank and placed it on the bow of thier boat for the extra firepower; they probably had to strip the turret down to the gun and the traversing ring gear to keep the boat from being too top heavy for sea but it still would be fun.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

It was a M3 37mm anti-tank gun at first and then later swapped it for the 37mm Oldsmobile cannon salvaged from a wrecked P-39.

Wonder if they could shoehorn 6x20mm into a P47's wings...



Wiley.

I was going to post the same thing.  Imagine the damage possibilities on ground targets.  oof

Dolby's well into this  :banana: Have to rename it from 109 Emil to 109 Evil   :devil

I like Karnak's mod. Ten bladed Mosquito would look fantastic. Have to get Moriarty to fettle those elevators to swing a bit further too!

They could fit a couple of 20mm cannons on wing mounts.

Thanks lunatic and ack-ack for the clarifications. I always thought it was a larger caliber gun, but it was so long ago that I read the book things get blurred in the memory.

Crikey. For use against infantry presumably?
