Hi Ontos,
>Instead of beating me over the head with "Facts". How about educating me on why everyone thinks that the "early" K seried had MG 151s in them.
I guess this is a misconception stemming from the re-introduction of wing cannon that was planned for the Me 109K series.
There are drawings with the designation Me 109K-6 or K-8 which have MG151 wing guns. These were of 20 mm calibre, but in 1944 the 15 mm variant wasn't used any more, so the shorter designation was understood by everyone.
For example, there was a drawing dated 23.6.1944 labeled "BF 109 K8 1 Motor MK103 2 Flügel MK151". If you don't know German, you might think this was a Me 109 with an engine MK103 and two cowl MK151, but "Flügel" means "wing" so it's clear these were no cowl guns. (And as stated above, they weren't 15 mm either.)
Though it was planned to fit the Me 109K with wing guns from 1943 on and the Me 109K-6 with internal cannon was to replace the /R6 kits with underwing cannon, no series production of these aircraft actually took place.
The only series-production Messerschmitts after the Emil to feature internal wing guns were the Spanish variants, powered by Merlins and armed with Hispanos :-)
