Does the nose gun rotate the nose dome like Lyric posted all of that info on some time back?

Parts are missing that I see.
No mounting bracket for the gun.
No gun cradle that the gun bolts into.
No belt feed ammo chute either.
Essentially it is the KI-67 prototype gun by appearances.

If the only pivot point is the point of the Plexiglas nose it is the same as what we have now.
Best guess very limited range of correct gun arcs.
Sadly no screen shots of the tail gun to see what is going on there.

What "I actually get used in the MA" airplanes still remain? Typhoon, A20? Anything else? Still can't believe turds are being updated before those.

In case you are referring to the Ki-67, that one actually sees quite a bit of usage.
Typhoon has been updated already. Tempest has not.

According to the stats, no.

According to the stats, no.
According to the last sortie counts published by HT, it had more sorties than the B-29 or Ar 234. :old:

Looks awesome! Very fine work on a tough 3D model, and on a bomber which can be survivable in the MA.
I had been thinking the Boston/A-20G would be next, going by MA usage - but now it occurs to me they may be saving the best for last...
Any updated 3D model is a win for AH3, IMO. Congrats, anxious to meet Miss Peggy in the game soon!

Looks good, but this shot brings something to mind..
Not to hijack this discussion, but I'd like the B17 bombardier compartment's visual goodies fixed, please.
Something got really screwed up from AH2 to AH3. Gauges, levers, desk, O2 tanks.. lots of issues.

Agreed. I'm hoping they have some fix that will give the nose and tail guns the correct firing arcs. We know the nose & tail cones rotate to give the gunner the chance to put his best firing angles where he needs them - I don't think the AH3 3D models will allow that sort of rotation to occur, but I hope they have something figured out.

It is definitely the nose cone of the prototypes.

....awesome! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Took a look at it offline before I went to work, looks good!

Rear gun configuration was a smart move simplified the rear dome to the variant with out it. Plus the gun arcs look to be spot on from the information Chalange had figured out.

I'm seeing only one defensive gun in the tail position now. It used to have two. Mistake or intended? It makes a big difference, since most attackers end up on a Ki67's 6 at some point.

There were several options in the tail end in real life over its service history.
What we have is one of them.
The rear gun firing arcs are much closer to what they should be compared to what we had.
