Title: RATO for 262 ?
Post by: Hristo on August 11, 2001, 02:34:00 AM

Screenshot suggests so (RTO in weapon selection).

How much is gained by it ?

Do we get R4Ms, bombs, DTs or even BK5 ?

Hristo,

It is my theory that the screen shots are:

An Ar234 wearing the skin of an Me262

&

An N1K2-J wearing the skin of a Hurricane MkIIc

I have never heard of an Me262 using RATOs and I know the Hurri IIc didn't have 400 rounds for its inner guns and 500 rounds for its outer guns, it has 90-91 rounds per gun.

Translation:  Look a the pictures, but don't believe the ammo indicators.
