atleast it can defend itself though!!!

I say yes, it wold be a fun alternative to the C47:aok

EDIT: i've found other sources that say it was not only armed with the tail gun metioned above, but also two MG 131s mounted in beam windows.

if we get that, maybe when you come within 6K, it could say, "Cargo"


then maybe within 2.5k, it  says the actual plane type, that way, say a spit 1 woul;d go for a c47, but maybe not a junkers cause of the tail gun



my opinion

:rofl  that plane looks like crap,but the guns will help..but heres my lil tactic in a c-47
(NOT RECOMENDED)
-If a enemy plane is on ur butt and ur going slow slam the flaps down/anything else that will slow u down and let them crash into u:D  most of the time with my luck i take a lil damage (or explode/die)

130mm..on the tail...dam the M1Abrams tank doesn't have a 130mm on it

what u wanna use a 130mm to rocket into a tree on take off? :rofl

and the weight on the tail would make it a pain in the butt to fly(not to mention evasion maeuvering:huh

Balance is an issue in the cases of "better" planes. Any cargo plane that gets added will carry exactly what the C-47 does to keep the current troop/supply balance in check.

it would carry the same, but maybe junkers could be a bit slow, but have a tail gun, would that even it out?
