Ju88G
« on: March 07, 2016, 11:32:46 AM »
A welcomed addition to the heavy fighter / night fighter force.

4*20mm in gondola, replacing the bomb bay, faster and better defensive guns than the A-model
2*20mm optional Schräge Musik. (45 deg upward firing 20mm ff).

Interesting feature for the painter's out there, some where painted to look as if they where the glass cockpit version, a nasty surprise HO'ing a set of 4*20mm center-mounted cannons.

Could actually get a radar cone asan extra feature.


My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.

Well it would certainly be fun to kill lance, bostons with them due to the lack of belly protection

AH could definitely use more than 1 ju88 variants. An attack version would be very useful and not a total hangar queen either.

Would be cool, if for no other reason than to get an 88 out of the hangar now and then.

Ju 88G still had the rear bomb bay for 10x 50kg bombs.

+1 to the G.

Did the tank killer Ju-88P model still have the rear bomb bay?

Yes but unlikely to be usable for bombs (only for fuel tank if at all due to weight limits), looking at images it looks like the doors were blocked by gun pod.

Ju88 itself is in need of an updated modeling. It is possible like with the Yak family, at that time the Ju88 will have a litter.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
