Title: Fw190 A-8 weapon arsenal is lacking bad (HTC)
Post by: Fishu on September 02, 2000, 11:31:00 PM

As I now found very good picture (and more than that in the past) and therefore there must been possibility to put those weapons (in the image) on A-8 (yes, A-8, not F or any other and thats what we have already).

It would be very nice to have those cannons, droptanks and bombs too.

Please, let us have those also, we have P-51 and P-47 filled up with options too.

Also, A8 cockpit is sorta primitively drawn compared to say the Zeke or Yak one.

I'd love to have more bombs on my jabo A8. For ack supression, 1*500kg is a wee bit too much. It's good for hangar strikes though.

Fishu, fix link? All I get is ugly ZOOM spam pic.

It's not mine, it is Juzz's, did I forget to mention? ops.. I did, sorry.. and I really were supposed to   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

I get that same image for me too at times, then I occasionally got the right image.


..but not as I couldn't fix it, I have enough good servers myself, so no need for xooms   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I hope Juzz does not mind bad, if he does, I'll remove it.

I scanned that, you can do whatever you want with it.  It came from William Green's "Warplanes of the Third Reich" which everybody should buy.    (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Pictures F,G,H were on Fw 190F and G only.

Pictures J and K were used for a few test planes only.

Still centerline bomb load lacks..
I wouldn't mind bad of 1000kg bomb or 6 20mm setup, even though it would be close to flying a tank.
It is also ridiculous that WGr.21 A-A rockets *STILL* aren't working the way they should..

What comes to those F and G models, where are those very much needed groundpounders? (been wondering that quite while)


..i wouldnt mind bad of 109E or Spit I / II neither  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I agree.  That ER-4 rack would be sweet.

I heard that W.Gr. 21 are being fixed for the next release.

Let's not forget all the anti-tank rockets too!

Spit I, II, and 109E, sounds good.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
People forget that some of the Spits facing the early 190's were Mk. II!  And we think it's hard in a Mk. V.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

The outboard cannon gondolas replaced the outer cannon. So its 6 20mm.
Notice those MG pods that look like Droptanks(H) are labeled as drop tanks. Someone should send the author a note correcting his mistake.
