The Me262 with the 50mm cannon never got beyond the experimental stage. It didn't work. The Mosuito FB.Mk XVIII did and was used.

...well that certainly is significant...didn't know...I'd take 4 x 30mm over 1 x 50mm anyway, unless i was attacking something with serious armour.

i say we get the hurr IV it was a very heavily armored hurr but still had a ton of manuverability and could carry 2 40's or 2 50's with 1,500 lbs of bombs and yes it did fly in war time

but i would take the B-25

mossie is wood and wood never has survived long
hs 129 is slow as F* and don't have much a* protection or top

hhhmmmm.. i would take Hs129
With MK103 or 37mm BK3,7 it should be good plane. As you can see from the pick, the 75mm gun is just too heavy for Hs129.
Hs129s cockpit/nose armor weighted about 1080kg (2,380lbs) and windscreen was 75mm (2.95in) thick armored glass.

Yamato was one impressive ship. It can now be seen ............. at the bottom of the Pacific!
